Imagine a local gangster has killed millions of people, and actively takes peoples freedoms away for non-violent crimes such a speech or economic activity.
Then you discover a way to fuck with their income and power, and then choose to do it publicly and with your real identity.
Not only that, you gloat about it and advertise that you are doing that explicitly to fuck with the gangster.
That's what Samourai, Whirlpool devs did, what other companies ARE doing.
To be so smart and yet so dumb, baffles.
