MODERATORS
I'm not saying the FBI should be excused for this. I'm saying the title is factually wrong and is designed to provoke attention
Even with that I think it's debatable. They were employed by the FBI at the time of usage so it isn't totally inaccurate to say it was the FBI doing it and we don't know what knowledge the FBI guys had of the company's methods.
The good news is the FBI cut the relationship. I'm not sure if that was because of public pressure or there desire to do the right thing
