DOJ Says Code Is Safe, But Developers Are Running for Cover

The case was brought by developer Michael Lewellen, a coder in a hoodie with probably more bindings than a handbag, who simply wanted a court to tell him plainly whether his software crossed any legal lines before he published it. A noble aim, really, like asking your tailor if that dress actually suits you rather than just looking fabulous while you stand in front of a mirror you’ve borrowed from a department store.
