If they wanted to own you, there is literally nothing you can do to get rid of the malware.
See this for an example.
Basically you have to throw the whole thing away if you're owned and they really want to own you.
So if you did something dumb, just assume that you're being watched forever, and make of that what you will. If you don't know how to be careful? Learn before you brick your system.
This code can hide in any place on your machine, including your bios, graphics card, etc. So now that you know that, plan accordingly.

Interestingly enough, the lecture was called Black Hat USA2015.

Black Hat is one of the largest hacker conferences in the world. The others being DefCon and CCC.
They tend to be anarchist/libertarian types who want full control over their tech, and see no problem hacking their shit even if companies say it's not allowed.
Now that does extend into illicit activity for sure, hacking for fun and profit is a very common phrase. So I'm not trying to downplay the black hatters, but it has a hacking connotation not a satanist one (although there is for sure overlap there).
White hat hackers hack into systems and inform the target of vulnerabilities whereas black hat hackers will steal your shit with the thought being you're too stupid to secure your shit so it's free. Gray Hats are hybrids who will break the law, but tend to not steal your shit.
So yeah, it's a very old conference, with the best hackers in the world. Do you want to know that hackers can remotely take control of your car and kill you if they want to? Then don't worry so much about the name and just focus on the content.
By the way, one of the favorite games they play here is "spot the fed". So there's definitely an understanding of what's going on on all sides. It's not hidden. It's in Vegas for obvious reasons.
