Policy Question 

SST vs Botnets

Hey guys!
at this point, I feel like I'm about to set myself up to get fukt.

I just read a thread that the SST section (including all Ads/Discussions) have been forbidden from being mentioned on HF.

But here is my question -
If SST and all discussion etc is forbidden, then why are some botnets allowed on HF at all?
Many people Use/Advertise SST Features into their botnet.
Isnt this just a SST proxy essentially?

Note: I have nothing against botnets.
Am I just over thinking?
To be honest the same things confused me. As I know from experience the main reasons of building a Net at all. Same applies to the RAT section. I know it's essentially the same thing, But it's totally different from IRC.

But I have also seen posts in regards to XMLRPC / NTP / DNS which don't seem to get removed. It feels like somewhat of a gray area. So I try to avoid it now. I did get a friendly reminder from a staff member to read the rules.
It's a grey area. Omni has explicitly said that if people start to abuse it, he'll ban it too.
