At the same time formally the thief did not do anything wrong: he took advantage of the functions provided for smart contract, sparking a heated debate about the future of The DAO and Ethereum community as a whole. However, the code was written in such a way that an attacker could not bring the stolen money once, and this benefited the developers deploying the situation in their favor.
