What Maone did wasn't necessarily right, although it certainly wasn't well-calculated to stimulate users' trust in anyone involved.

The main thing I don't understand about this is why the Adblock Plus guy wanted to single out Maone in the first place (which he admits he took proactive steps to do).

At the moment, after reading both sides, my personal opinion is that at worst, this is a case of an injudicious response to provocation.
