No I haven't created or sold malware.

But i have this; A middle-eastern last name, I use Tor, I use Linux, and I use Telegram, I am active in the field of IT and especially enjoy IT security.

I know that I can be held indefinitely if I visit the USA. In the USA you're guilty until proven innocent, unlike the rest of the western world. Simply going to the USA is more risk than it is for practically every other country. Well, for me, and a lot of people like me.

That's what my comment was about.

EDIT: How is it relevant to the article? Well, he is an IT security specialist who wanted to visit DEFCON. Yes, I understand what he did was wrong, it was his own risk.
