Having been studying what this guy and his group were doing, I doubt he is capable of doing anything for the good of society. This guy was a major asshole
Yeah, 4chan likes to make jokes, but this dude is basically the exact definition of “weaponized autism”. He was in police custody for hacking Nvidia when he hacked Rockstar. He’s compulsive.
And even his hacks weren’t considered “proper” hacks. He was hated even by black-hat hackers, because he did things like install ransomware then refuse to decrypt when the victim paid the ransom. Even among black-hat hackers, that’s major taboo. Because if word spreads that hackers won’t restore your data after you pay, people will stop paying completely. Restoring the data is the only reason someone would pay, and if they can’t even count on that then they have no incentive to pay. He also did things like delete files just for fun, and trolled in the company Slack forums for laughs. 4chan would be proud, but only because it’s a great case study in troll radicalization.
