> This tool is only for legitimate programs only. It is strictly forbidden to use it for any malicious programs.

I'm sure the authors of malicious software will be certain to respect this clause

It’s a way of saying "I decline any responsibility if anyone uses this tool for malicious purposes".

[golergka]

What about legitimate programs that are created to help legitimate penetration testers? And are forbidden from being used by people with malicious intent.

Just for the record, OP is talking about the "obfuscation" tool and not about the "decompiler".

[jetti]

I would imagine that it is there in order to protect themselves if someone uses their tool for malicious purposes as they can point to that statement and say they were not complicit.

This reminds me of the once-often used phrase on CraigsList: "No scammers"

I mean, why even put that there?

[klabb3]

It makes a bit of sense. Some scammers target the extremely naive, who don’t even know there are scams. Those scammers might skip such victims to save time. These days, when scamming is so automated I doubt it makes a difference.
