Colton Grubbs, a 21-year-old man from Kentucky, the developer of the LumunosityLink RAT has pleaded guilty to federal charges of creating, selling and providing technical support for the malware to his customers, who used it to gain unauthorized access to thousands of computers across 78 countries worldwide

The problem is that he knew most of his customers were using his tool to break the law and continued to sell it to them anyways. His actions were illegal because of his criminal intent (full disclosure: I’m not a lawyer and this is not legal advise).
Thank you for the past
