I trust our government's tech and hacking capabilities as much as I trust politicians to ensure that ISPs are held accountable for subsidies and grants.

I don't see why the FBI would have bad intentions here.

Everyone in the US, including the FBI and the NSA have in their best interest a functioning economy without companies being ransomwared to death.

The FBI's intentions are getting more funds.

Seeming to be doing something useful is more important to that end than actually doing something useful, hence their colorful history of creating easy problems to fix and then solving them to great fanfare, particularly well-documented in the aftermath of 9/11.

It's much safer to find mentally unstable people, surround them by undercover agents and get them to incriminate themselves than it is to go after actual criminals.

They didn't have bad intentions, but they might have mismatched incentives.

An FBI agent wants to stop criminals and have a big bust more-so than they want to generally preserve the economy.

Intentions don't necessarily correspond very much to outcomes.
