Incarcerated computer legend John McAfee says he’s stunned by the price of Dogecoin.
Speaking from behind bars in a Spanish jail after being banged up on charges of cryptocurrency fraud and tax evasion, the 75-year-old was apparently shocked to hear the crypto hailed by Elon Musk and Snoop Dogg was now changing hands for as much as 30 cents a unit.
“There are a few inmates that speak English well enough for John to have conversations with so that has helped him to not feel so isolated,” she said.
McAfee hinted earlier this year that it was his involvement with Doge – a cryptocurrency that was launched as a joke seven years ago – that led to US authorities hunting him down on various charges. The entrepreneur had tweeted about the digital asset, allegedly elevating its value.

He was busted a few days before the alleged ballot fraud in the general election after he said watch what happens and I know how it will be done..
He should have long ago been in a Belize jail for murder.
McAffee is out there. But I don’t doubt he’s correct both on Dogey coin and Election Theft 2020.
I’d like to hear more his thoughts on the latter.
Believe it or not Police in other countries are not as upstanding as the ones here. The evidence is pretty clear that police were trying to extort money from him.
worth listening to this interview with him, he sounds far more lucid then biden has been on his best day ever.

Damn, that website just blows up with pop up ads.
Here is an hour long interview he did with Patrick Bet-David.
To me, he sounds like a very sensible and sane person. Especially considering the time we live in now.

he is asked about our election process at the 25 min mark
in the patrick bet-david interview..
Thanks for posting that
The thanks goes to you for posting his being arrested after he tweeted about the election. It jogged my memory of this interview. I was not aware he had been arrested nor why.
I have been racking my brain to remember the man, John (?), that invented PGP back in the ‘80’s and ‘90’s. The FBI hounded that man. Folks that think we got here under O are wrong. It was long before.
Don’t get me started on what the FCC is sending out to the HAM community this year.
Ain’t it good to be old and know the story from long ago? :-)
“Don’t get me started on what the FCC is sending out to the HAM community this year.”
Do tell.

“In a bizzare warning issued by the FCC and followed by a warning from the Association for Amateur Radio, The ARRL, ham are warned on a Sunday morning to not commit crimes with their equipment. What is this about?”

It’s because ham radio can spread info without censorship to people around the globe. Big tech can censor everything but amateur radio.
I love God. He is amazing. He gave us the radio waves on which we transmit data when He created His universe. On His waves we can transmit voice, TV, radio, email, and other information. They can censor copper/fiber lines laid by man, but they can’t sensor the waves created by God.
He is true in His Word and His Works. Through the Millennia His Word has always stood. He said all the gods would be gone, but His Word would live on forever. Where are the gods of the Egyptians, the Philistines, the Greeks, the Romans?
True, paganism is springing up again, but again, His said this would happen.
Thanks, Lurkin, but I warned folks to not get me started :-)
Pardon my mistake. I meant to address you as Lurker, not Lurkin.
No worries. I’m studying for a Technician license now and have a GMRS license now. Been learning how repeaters operate.
As far as this “notice” goes I’d be willing to wager that licensed HAM operators are one of the most law abiding demographics in the country. If the FCC wanted to do some criminal enforcement maybe they could look at those ANTIFA goons almost all of whom are pictured carrying those ChiCom hand helds.

As a General Class Ham since 2008, generally speaking you're correct. I'll stop there before incriminating myself.
I've been a licensed ham since 2008. I've not received anything from the FCC this year. My address is up to date in the ULS database. Please, do tell what they're sending out.
Thank you, dayglored. Do you remember the blackout websites did in the early to mid ‘90’s due to his harassment? Back then most computer folks were libertarians.
Before MS most folks that wrote code shared it on the BBS for others to use.

Your words are the same as what my son said when he saw the letter/video. They are law abiding. My Dad thought the same. When you have multi-generational agreement you usually have a truth.
I suspect that they are not wanting to look at groups other than law abiding citizens.
Good luck with the technician license. You will do fine. It would be nice to learn more about repeaters.
Thanks.

Thanks usconservative. Please see Post 11. The FCC sent it out to the ARRL. Do you get their publications? In other words, are you a member?
