      Sure. And the moving goalposts of this "confession" raise real questions whether that happened.

      Moreover, selling malware is NOT illegal (and not what alleged). Selling a wiretapping device for purpose of wiretapping is.

      And malware that specifically swipes banking details isn't a wiretapping device?

      It's not clear that the code Hutchins admitted to writing did that. Evidence suggests the contrary.

      "the author of the code of Kronos malware" sure does sound like "MARCUS HUTCHINS created the Kronos malware"

      No. It doesn't. Which is my entire point. Moreover, the public evidence doesn't support that.

      There is no public evidence.. How does "He admitted he was the author of the code of Kronos malware" not mean author of code of Kronos?

      If I write a sentence and someone then includes my sentence in their manifesto, am I then the author of their manifesto?

          Yup. Notice that's not in the indictment? Wonder why?

          ??? So you're agreeing with the indictment, or not? Agreeing with what prosecutor is saying, or not?

          I'm using long experience of reading US indictments to point out huge holes in what is being claimed. You? I'm not sure.

          I think you've chosen the wrong posterboy for the latest "hate the FBI" scandal.

          Nah. I think I am doing what I do for indictments generally, and have for years: read through the weak points. You?
