That's an awful precedent that shows why I and others fought against criminalization of exploit code

That's only if you believe he didn't write Kronos. There's a lot more evidence popping up on Google and old chat logs saying differently.

Nope, that actually applies regardless. Punishing people because they wrote code is bad.

Uhh but he would have wrote and sold a banking trojan to people he knew would use it for crime, and he took feature reqs from them. Really?

That, if proven, would be a separate thing from "he wrote the code". And still there's this detail of "due process" before we condemn him.

The indictment clearly shows they're not arresting him simply because he "wrote some code." And his already public logs clearly show intent.

The indictment shows what they want to prove. Not proof. And once again there is this detail that he needs to be convicted first.

It looks pretty clear to me! Why the race to defend him over any other malware dev? Because he has a Twitter/Github/shows up to parties?
