Why should he? There's nothing suggesting his pupils are involved, and a teacher isn't at fault for their students transgressions.

OK. What is I taught chemical warfare to SS? Would your opinion be the same?

Strangely, I see a difference between teaching a voluntary paramilitary organization a method of warfare and teaching college students some computer science that they potentially could build on to cause harm.

If I remove the hyperbole, I do not blame the physics and chemistry teachers of the 30's for the horrors of WWII.

And anyone you choose to teach could use that lesson maliciously.
