What do you think will, or should, be the blowback for the saboteurs?  In my opinion, some of what they're doing, such as ddos'ing the bitcoin network and the exchanges, is probably a violation of CFAA in the US, possibly also Racketeering.

What will the blowback be?
- Explusion from the Bitcoin community generally
- Drop the saboteurs from future business dealings
- blacklisting of the people and IP's involved
- Abandon the badly-behaving mining pools
- Personal civil lawsuits for incurred losses
- criminal charges under CFAA and/or RICO
- All exchanges drop BCH
- Exchanges refuse to list any new altcoin with "Bitcoin" in the name
- other ?
Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

All you need to know to understand that they're not saboteurs is the following quote from their website:
Is Bitcoin Cash different from 'Bitcoin'?

Yes.
If they don't claim to be Bitcoin, then what are they supposedly sabotaging?
some of what they're doing, such as ddos'ing the bitcoin network and the exchanges
Not all supporters of BCH are doing this.  I can't even find any objective or clear evidence that anyone is doing it with ulterior motives at all.
