This is a good service since states felt it was necessary to use surveillance powers against the domestic population.
To me that warrant retaliation in my opinion, it would be a case for self-defense. For example isolating the trojan in a honey-pot OS and delivering it to foreign actors cybersecurity research labs. Just make it unfeasible to support such software and it will stop. My country (Germany) sadly is prone to ignore civil liberties. There were home searches because someone called a some minister a penis on Twitter and there were other severe transgressions. Since the law doesn't protect against them anymore, the state has proved that it is not capable for responsible conduct with software the relies on zero-day-exploits which endanger every computer system.
Glad that companies with real security expertise put up the slack here, although they shouldn't have to do that.
