I'm more interested in this part of the article:

What sources indicate this, and what case could the FBI make against the alphabets? I was under the impression that their language of "opinion only" covered them from criminal negligence. Making mistakes in your job and providing shoddy service when mistakes are pointed out are not crimes. I would imagine it would be near impossible to prove any criminal intent or action here.

If the FBI is looking into the ABC authenticators it cannot be for negligence. I have no first hand knowledge that the FBI is looking at them but if they are it is not for negligence.
