Have you considered the possibility that Rob Monster may have made a pact with Satan?
It's also possible that his many associations have left him open to blackmail and he has become a puppet - take your pick, extremists, Feds, Russians, Chinese, profiteers pulling the strings.
The ignoring of reported security issues might not be simple ignorance or indifference, it might be avoidance of costs. The whole point of Epik may have been to build it up and sell it on, a kind of pump and dump where admitting security issues and the costs of fixing them would make a sale harder.
Yes, with Rob Monster all things are possible. I have honestly not ever encountered someone as weak and dishonest and unrepentant as Rob Monster in a professional atmosphere. I've read about them and seen documentaries about commercial builders who used shoddy materials and bldgs collapsed, pharma execs who knowingly sold poison and covered up studies or even doctored them and fund managers who lied and destroyed people's life savings. It's always shocking to me how these people never feel sorry, they always play the victim and they always maintain an air of superiority. Monster is the same as these types but he even throws in the whole Christian schtick to help sell, which makes it all even more disgusting.
When I first spoke with Monster I figured he was just a really immature Christian, recently saved from a lifetime of partying and adultery, using carnal means, deceit, lying, covering up evil, etc for what he thought was some greater good eg. protecting free speech, defending Christians, etc, but I pretty quickly figured out he was a fraud and the whole thing was just a grift to get rich and a chance for him to finally feel important.
I do not think he is knowingly in partnership with the Devil, at least not yet, but he certainly is doing his bidding. As far as working with some other group to sell out his customers, I am sure he would and probably find a way to make himself feel like he is doing good when he does it. I still find it highly suspicious that within 60 days of getting $32,000,000 from a mystery investor, for minority stake of common in Epik, (ridiculous valuation) that a monstrous hack happens.
I sincerely believe that Rob Monster entered a reprobate state at some point in his life and is now beyond salvation. This type can learn a lot of doctrine and have some emotional experiences that make them believe they are Christians and stop participating in some sins but the fact of the matter is that they are not saved and they never will be saved. Eventually, as they fail to repent of the harm they cause and hurt to real believers they begin to accept what they are and embrace it fully. That is where Monster is at now. I was just helping sink the spiritual hook.
"Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all
men, as theirs also was."
