this has the (un)fortunate consequence of being illegal. Writing exploits and selling them to a friendly government, on the other hand, is totally legal. Plus, then you can sell support contracts for that sweet recurring revenue!

This also makes you a target for enemy services (for enabling "friendly government") and friendly services for being a potential whistleblower.

Quite the cost in my eyes...
