    The 1337 could be a nod to gamer culture because it stands for “leet” and may be popular with the folks who participate in bug bounties. Pure speculation on my part here. EDIT: yep…

    Why are you shocked? Video games are an awesome way to unwind and get lost in other worlds. They can appeal to folks of all ages and backgrounds.
