>What is point of letting them claim innocence? It changes the evidentiary basis of future claims on related grounds. The admission opens them up to other legal risks outside of the current dispute. Maybe European regulators want to slap them for the same fact pattern (same facts, different jurisdiction). Maybe a class action is put together (same facts, different plaintiffs). Maybe they have an HR suit for unlawful termination from one of their security guys claiming he was fired for disclosing a vulnerability (related facts). Etc.
