Agreed. But the (alleged) criminal kept private keys on cloud AND used weak encryption. These are extremely silly mistakes.

They could have used bitwarden (or a password manager) and they would be good to go.

Also the best pursuers needs 6 years (2022 - 2016) to catch them. Plenty of time for the perps to take a lot of measures.

I don’t think Bitwarden would be helpful. You still need to protect your master password and the company is still subject to the will of law enforcement.
