The people who do this are likely not American or Western European, likely not from a wealthy background, likely don't have access to high end tech jobs, and probably can't even make 5% of what a Facebook or Google employee makes.

These people might feel spite and anger towards the western world for the extreme lavish excess that developers enjoy. It's not hard to imagine a world where developers can learn some skills but are locked out participating like we do, and thus decide to weaponize those skills against us for whatever profit they can.
