    This is a poorly written article. The FBI did not access computers randomly looking for the botnet like it claims, they used the botnet infrastructure to uninstall itself.

    There are still extremely valid privacy concerns here, especially considering potential applications of plain view laws, but it should still be presented factually.

      Yeah, that’s going to be abused horrendously. The FBI can legally remotely install software on any computer they like now?
