    I’d say since the first full year of him living in an embassy ended, we can’t be justified to call him a scumbag.

    Other than that - his sense of humor in the NetBSD fortune files and other traces in the Internet maybe sucks, but he’s a better role model than Snowden (whose life is somehow much easier, which is suspicious really).

        Because unlike Snowden you can somewhat trace him before the big story which made him known, and that trace is connected with, as I said, NetBSD and cypherpunk culture, the good stuff.

        While Snowden is some messiah which came out of nowhere and is still free and well. It’s just suspicious for me.
