eg this guy: https://github.com/Kr4ken-9/cathook is kr4ken on HN, there's probably others here who are smart enough not to link their black-hat identity with HN.
This is literally blackhats bitching that they got VAC-banned, 100% legitimately, and then concern-trolling us about what-if scenarios about some hypothetical innocent user who might have been swept up with their script-kiddie customers.
Can't say that such opinions really have any place here, IMO, considering that they are the ones who created the problem in the first place. Maybe it's not worth shutting them down, but they certainly shouldn't be celebrated or legitimized in any fashion.
Scorn is an entirely appropriate community reaction here, and a mod tipping the scale in favor of black-hats is not really appropriate IMO.
