    Counterpoint: he got caught. Whatever his offensive capabilities are, his security posture is evidently lacking. Recruiting a glass cannon like that might not work out if you’re looking for help with security hardening.

      Counter-counterpoint: he could work as a pentester, where his sole purpose is to just break into things.

      Leave the policy making and actual hardening to someone else.

        Then comes the issue of a rogue pentester selling his clients zerodays into black market for crypto. Don’t know if the myth of being hired by government agencies is true.

          I know nothing about anything but I definitely believe the government would do it. If anyone has the power to keep the hackers acting nice it’s the government. Especially if they write your paychecks.
