You don’t kidnap extremely highly skilled internet malware developers and force them to code for you, you just pay them appropriately.
Jupp. If you trap someone highly skilled and give that person a weapon, the chances are good that this person will use that against you.
Like how does a less skilled person know that this code will not send location to the police with a message?
A bit late, but the police are often paid by captors, so calling the police just leads to punishment.
The malware, sure, but you're ignoring how they were able to push the malware in the first place.
