Apparently this guy is well known in the computer nerd circles. Buddy of mine knew all about his story.
He’s in New Zealand and the U.S. wants him extradicted so he can come to an American jail over copyright violations. He had some site to download movies for free.
Yes, this is a well known high-profile guy in computer circles. I bet the Reddit moderators are working overtime on this one.
Changing subjects, does anyone have a good link for a decent summary of the DNC Wikileaks fun.
Here's the short version:
Mega Upload was a site to store and make available large files, whatever they may be. The government wanted the site to act as a surrogate copyright policeman. KDC said no and moved himself and his site out of US jurisdiction. That freaked them out and they've been on a crusade against him ever since.
I’ve seen interviews with the guy. He’s not an idiot or crazy guy. If he says something...it’s usually the truth. The question would be....did he actually say this?
He has tons of “fans” who are geeks and consumed with plotting against something. It wouldn’t surprise me if several of them got into her system and captured every single email.
