Am I a deranged crazy person?
Try to resolve those. If the company you’re trying to contact is still send your emails to the spam bin, maybe try contacting other people who have done disclosure on issues like this before. If you can convince them then they can use their own credibility to advance the issue.
If that doesn’t work then I guess check the “deranged crazy person” things one more time and move on to disclosing it publicly yourself.

Sometimes the whole world does seem crazy. So I’m not liking my odds. Thanks for the rational advice.
