So what exactly happened with that? I read a bunch of 5-8 months post about how a former engineer had wrote backdoors into the code, and was hot on the trail. Me being a huge nerd, this made for thrilling reading, but now I'm confused. Where these people ever caught? It seems like a shitload of money for them to just walk off into the night.
Nope, all of those posts were from trolls or scammers trying to get bounties or bribes. They seem to have gotten away clean.
