Therein lies the biggest moral "iffiness" I have about the allegations.

Personally, I don't have that much of a problem with "bad guy tactics" that're used to identify bad guys.

While I've never thought of Anthony as a saint, I've never thought of him as 100% sinner, either. It's indisputable that he's done a lot of people a lot of good. Often by being the first or one of the first to expose a bad situation.

Should it bother me that I don't care too much what his methods were so long as I approve of the end results in cases where he really identified scams in the making?

That's how I feel right now, anyway. I just got back from a couple of days in hospital so am out of sorts and not able to really process the info, but my first take is "so what" on the allegations of being a bad guy to identify bad guys. That doesn't include profiting from that info, and it certainly doesn't include the FBI agent who accepted fees for delivering that info.

The methods don't bother me anywhere near as much as the allegation of extorting shares from companies. I hope at least that part is proven untrue, as I just really don't want to believe he'd do something like that. It's the antithesis of everything he claims to stand for and that I believe he does.
