My main gripe with your angle and others who take up a similar one is, "punished just for writing code...". I wish it WERE true that they "just wrote code". more (normal-er) people would be on board with the outrage IF they "just wrote code". Next time someone gets unfairly prosecuted like this, I hope they will have "just written code". Someone seeing the "they just wrote code" message, and then digging deeper and finding out they "also made $6M" makes whoever said "they just wrote code" seem disingenuous, not credible, and like they might be papering over other important details as well. Keep your credibility up in the eyes of onlookers by telling the whole story. It becomes easier to tell the whole story when there isn't $6M hiding in the plot.
