It is when it's a tool for the hacking community by the hacking community. This is NOT an end-user program. This is a tool made for OSINT, a crucial step in social engineering.
The hacking community is not going to budge on its culture for skiddies. It never has and never will. If you don't understand what's going on, the tool probably isn't made for you.
If you don't understand the technical implications, it is very dangerous for you to be fucking around with hacking tools, both on a technical and social level.
Edit to add: the hacking community is very different from the regular open source community. They do not want people who DGAF about technology or security barging in.
They do not want to make 'destroy a persons life' buttons for some random twat to push without thinking. In this particular case, they do not want to be indirectly responsible for some DV twat literally ending their spouse. The computer knowledge barrier is far from perfect but it's enough to get in the way of most of the worst would-be abusers.
