Wait, what?
How does a person accused of development and direct distribution of malware qualify as a white hat? Because he pulled the plug on some ransomware and put his name in global households?
There are a lot of logic jumps here that you have simply glossed over.
- jstanley 9y agoThe same way someone accused of murder qualifies as not-a-murderer. "Accused" just means someone said it, it doesn't make it true.
- oxide 9y agoThat itself is a huge logic jump that is being made, both by the DoJ and the infosec community. His bail was set at 30k, the 10% rule makes his bail 3k, so he should be out by tomorrow if he really deved that malware. If not, you're all being targeted so you should grab a new career before you get feds at the door.
- syshum 9y agoNo the "10%" rule makes his BOND $3,000 which he would pay to a Bail bondsman and and lose forever. You can put up $30,000 Cash or some other asset as BAIL then that is returned to you in full after the trail Or you can pay a Bails Bondsmen 10% of that, as a fee, they will put up the court a 30K BOND then assure the court they will make you appear or pay the court the 30K if skip You as the individual however lose that $3k.
