It's not "hacking back", it is disabling a fraudulent copy set up to steal money. It can't be done to IOTA because the full source code is not vulnerable to this attack. There is nothing illegal or unethical about this.

You are interfering with a computer system that you don't have permission to. This is hacking. It doesn't matter if the software is copied.

It's good to see your argument has been reduced to "I don't like what they did".

Well done! You worked it out the root cause of why people don't like something. They don't like it! That must have taken some real effort.

No, I said your *argument* has been reduced to "I don't like what they did". If you really are a security consultant then you should be intelligent enough to know that's very different to what you just claimed I worked out.

It's cool dude, you've admitted the vulnerability is there, just you don't think it's a real vulnerability.

Why would I explain it to him when he has just tweeted about it, demonstrating he understands it?
