I've never moved the goalpost, your interpretation may have changed though. Regarding accountability I'm talking about any tool which contains all those features [1] packaged together in high concentration. So NanoCore, Sub7, Zeus etc. Beyond that I've talked specifically about NanoCore. You said the accountability question isn't interesting to you and commented plenty on the specific features. It increasingly felt to me that you're building a case for every feature separately, which is why I brought it explicitly back to the package. I've never argued for the features being inherently malicious in a vacuum, so arguing that with me seems like talking past eachother more than anything else.
Regarding describing personal experience around software designed for illegal purposes, I don't feel like the benfits are worth it for me right now. So you'll have to live with parallel construction. [2]
Unrelated to NanoCore, just as a friendly suggestion, you should cut down on the ad hominem. In every reply you've made to me you've managed to slap on a personal attack. First you called me ignorant and having a lack of imagination. Next you call into question my experience. Now to top it off, you've moved from ad hominem to straight up name calling, accusing me of being a troll. [3] Tactics like these don't help me understand your arguments any better, and I would bet they don't help others reading either.

[1] I want to be even more clear in that when I say "all those features" I also mean the truckload of botnet controlling & deployment features that I didn't list in my comment but exist in NanoCore and other competing software.
