How do we apply that special responsibility to open source software? Say, Metasploit.

I'm proficient with both commercial and open source tools, and in most cases the open source ones are more powerful.

Not saying enabling isn't a shameful act, but it is a slippery slope. As you pointed out, at what point does AWS need to start investigating customer workloads.

Metasploit is free software. We're talking about a commercial enterprise deliberately profiting from enabling surveillance.
