That's not true at all. I know him, too. He is offline, not in jail, but plans to be back online at some point. He was acquitted of the charges you referenced. The report you linked is also not accurate about the charges. (Believe it or not, cops lie.)
replyWhat happened? I can't find any info
replyIf I link to any articles about it, I dox him unfortunately and I'd prefer not to. I was friends with cmang from our pre-teen days, and we were both heavily involved in the ansi/ascii scene. I'm sure there's still some here who remember him from efnet, or other places.

replythats admirable, and i am certainly not telling you to do otherwise.
but i will point out that they have written out their full name and state on their github, patreon, and buymeacoffee.
I didn't notice that but you're correct, and that does change the calculus. In that case: https://www.mctxsheriff.org/news_detail_T6_R1333.php
replyThis certainly changes things...
replyIf a programmer ends up in jail, it is kind of important to know why, so we can assess if we want to run/use their software. So without writing the details I found out, the alleged crime (if it is the same person) is a crime we as society disagree with, very much. But it isn't related to cybercrime in a sense where it can hurt this software project directly.
