Or Planned Parenthood because some people think abortion on demand is wrong?

While I generally agree with what you said, I'd say the difference with Planned Parenthood is that they take federal funding of taxpayer money, while the others are for-profit companies that live or die by consumer demand, profitability, and brand reputation.

If taxpayers paid for guns, or cigarettes, or political opposition research, I'd say they'd have a good basis to complain.

Difference noted, but Planned Parenthood is just as capable of violating laws as a for-profit company. I have already agreed that my opinion that Crowdstrike has sinned does not give me the authority to punish that company. Who knows, maybe Loretta Lynch or Brennan told Crowdstrike they were covered. If Crowdstrike is guilty of crimes, Brennan and company should be in greater danger. I believe that the “IC assessment” (that Crowdstrike contributed to) was shameful.

Crowdstrike certainly did not do a legitimate analysis of the DNC server. No private company could have done a forensic analysis. But in that particular case the analysis bore no resemblance to forensic analysis, yet Crowdstrike maintains that it was and they provided it to the FBI. But thery did not, even Comey admitted that they had essentially the information from the blog post:

Senator Richard Burr (R-N.C.): Did the FBI request access to those devices to perform forensics on them?

Comey: [coughs] Yes, we did.

Burr: Were you given access to do the forensics?

Comey: We were not. A highly respected private company got access and shared with us what they saw there.

Meanwhile it is well known that Crowdstrike was connected with Perkins Coie and the Atlantic Council.
