So... Peter Williams of L3Harris Trenchant covertly sells exploit kits like Coruna, which was developed for the US, to other countries - gets 7 years in prison.

DarkSword is found soon after, likely developed from Coruna.

Meanwhile,US uses Israeli Spyware companies to build exploit kits, which are contracted to other countries to surveil protest movements, journalists, and citizens alike.

Hey US Government!.. maybe you should stop producing and funding exploit kits and spyware?
