He did not try to export trade secrets.
The trade secrets are the algorithms for trading. He did not touch those.
He took a very small amount of open source code that was mixed with proprietary code. This code may have been illegally obtained by Goldman Sachs due to common open source licenses requiring that improvements also be open sourced.
He was writing a new software in a different language. He was not stealing a platform to build code upon.
He was a very good programmer who was underpaid and mistreated. His own colleagues were coached to make him appear guilty of stealing 100% proprietary code. The majority of the code was open source. I find that to be dishonest testimony.
