> but if you are doing something such that the US is going to burn a zero day to get you, the appropriate prior is that you are doing something supremely heinous and evil. Or, you are someone like Edward Snowden, or some activist who is directly working against the US government's interests overseas. The US has a history of even assassinating activists that get too powerful (usually indirectly, by hiring some local goons), so using a zero-day to compromise them is table stakes.
