If some guy was standing on a ledge, and instead of trying to persuade him to step away, you instead encourage him to jump. Would you feel responsible for him jumping?

That's how I view the hackers responsibility in the guy's death. Would he have eventually killed himself if he wasn't outed illegally by the hackers? Maybe, maybe not. We'll never know. But for sure him being outed encouraged him to commit suicide.
