Maybe the best way for the author to learn from his mistake is to get yelled at and the project forked away from him.

Like, I dunno, but if someone decides to feed my dog a KitKat, I probably wouldn't trust them around my dog anymore, you know? Yeah, they've learned their lesson about dogs and chocolate, but what other stuff don't they realize?

If you feel like that is appropriate, you could do that. I'm just glad the author removed the malware, and hope he's able to find a way to make money that doesn't involve a commercial botnet.
