Deadman’s Switch.
Hasn’t Julian Assange made remarks that if he was killed, certain files would automatically be released?
I don’t see why someone like John McAfee would not do the same. Surely, he knew how to set it up, or had enough loyal online followers to do such for him. John was such an attention loving Entertainer, he would set up a “Q” message just to get folks talking about him after he expected to have been gone.
The “Q” was The Bat Signal
Worst deadman switch ever.
I remember reading recently that he said 31 terabytes of files would be released if he died or disappeared.
