Yes, that little fact is going to follow them around for life. It also puts this quote into an ironic light:
This company does not clearly state what their relationship is with western intelligence agencies. Not even as much as a hint of an ethics statement or information about how long they hold disclosure or how this is handled. One should assume that 'white hat' for them and 'hacking for good' may mean the exact opposite. With that I'm a little surprised the irony of Google Ventures money being used for this is not highlighted more. Google complains along with others about the destabilisation of the tech industry at the NSA hands and yet funds a company that may very well help with that?
