I had a professor in a cyber security class go off about how you're a traitor to the United States if you thing well of him. I remember rolling my eyes and wondering why she was drinking so much cool aid.
He did the right thing, but the concept of heros is not a good or useful one, especially when it comes to political actors.
Maybe she was funded by the NSA?
My thoughts exactly.
Never neet your heros and all that i guess.
