Nobody seems to recall he started out as a whitehat hacker and was punished for it before going to the dark side. He's the same guy who revealed what VTech was up to and chose to NOT sell the information of children and get someone to fix the major security issue before someone far less ethical than him exploited it and could sell all of that info. Was what he did the best route? Honestly, it probably was. If he had gone the legal route there is a good chance nothing would have been done until it was too late. Was it legal? No. And he was punished. This is how super heroes turn into super villains. =) Do right and nobody remembers. Do wrong and nobody forgets. Let's be nobodies together ❤️
