What a legend, hope FBI goes to fuck themselves and fight crime and not just some internet people sharing their stuff.

I hate that this fucker is becoming some hero who is wrongly prosecuted. Sure, the copyright infringement charges are utter bullshit. But the guy himself is a complete asshole and has been all his adult life. He sold out his buddies to the police, worked for an infamous lawyer sending out copyright infringement notices (!) and has been sentenced for fraud multiple times. He's a cunt and I hope he rots in prison.

He’s also an alt right weirdo. Posts literal “protocols of zion” neo nazi propaganda and is super misogynistic. He was on a twitter live space talking with people and a lawyer was on the live and he started harassing her to change her profile picture because you could see some cleavage in her profile picture (which she was wearing a suit in)

The FBI is a corporate lap dog, just as much of the US government is. I doubt they'll stop expending resources to protect their owners.

Proper authority has been notified!

Lay down and spread your cheeks, boy.
