While I tend to agree that this is possible, the parent's point was how unrelated this was to WC and to any research occurring in the field. It's strictly a case of "this guy wrote malware and sold it".
> you seem to believe fully this narrative of the FBI with no room for the FBI to view completely innocent actions as something else. No room for the FBI to be in error, no room for the FBI to be wrong.
I'm confused. The parent simply stated he was arrested for that. How does that translate into "Parent believes 100% what the FBI states with no room for the FBI to be wrong"?
