...and this is/was the true Firefox way. You don't need to get some other browsers on the same engine made by shady companies. You have powerful plugins.

You folks have some weird beliefs about the world and of course it always leads to conspirology. Usually you need to have intent to be accused (depends on the crime though, crimes of omission exist too). If you wrote a virus that causes damage it is a crime, if you wrote a bot crawler that accidentally DDoS'ed some company it is likely a civil case. And a virus is a tool that serves a specific purpose, like you can't say to a judge that a functional machine gun you made in your basement is a paperweight.

But "superintelligence that can casually hack government services while solving puzzles" is a completely new problem and of course crime codes don't cover it. What will be next? I hope AI tech lobby loses and "accidental AI hacking" will be criminalized.
