This ethic dilemma around this case is real . Software developer is solely not responsible if his platform used by Criminals without his knowledge , is this right , do you think ?

If you are aware or the criminality and you don't stop it then you are partly to blame. I believe that, in this case, as if there was criminal exchanges then he was part of it happening.
I don't think that accounts for all trades on his platform, but I can't give him the greenlight on everything if it included selling scams for example.
Just saw some post what he did with Silk Road and he knew it , if that’s the case he is voluntary helping that drugs and cartel crimes flourish knowingly . In that case he legitimately guilty and should be charged. But the amount of charged is seems insane 2 x life sentences and 40 years .
Agreed, Silk Road was a great idea - no doubt.
But how you run and operate it, determines your morality.
And then yes, even after that - it does sound outlandish his sentence for what he did. I guess he served his time now, 11 years is a lot of time to think.
I hope with his skills he can developed more benefit website application that can advanced our used of technology in healthcare , manufacture or so .
Hmm do you why nobody talked about Aaron case ? Is he really suicide ?
