Plausible deniability

Smells like a PR exercise for future clandestine use of its tools.

If it's an above-board target, then its law enforcement using a full licenced copy.

If it's an inappropriate target - oh its not us we're lovely, it must be those criminals that stole our software, did we mention the baddies got our software, here's the FBI press release.
