Hero or villain?

I recently watched this documentary and it brought up a lot of questions:

go away FBI or go talk to Keanu Reeves
>>
>>56499775
All people facing the state are heroes.
>>
Neither.

He gambled and he lost. He's an incompetent entrepreneur .
>>
>>56499828
It's funny that Keanu is narrating the movie. I wonder if he supports internet privacy.
>>
fuck da fedz
>>
>>56499775
not technology

>>>/pol/
>>>/biz/
>>
>>56500037
His whole case is about technology.
>>
>>56500201
Fuck off.
>>>/soc/
>>
>>56499828
REAL
E
A
L

LOLITA SHIT
>>
>>56499884
The way he wrote it sounded like it wasn't about the money, but maybe that was bullshit I dunno
>>
>>56499884
He just wanted to be on the goodside when /b/ starts phase2 and shit hits the fan.
>>
>>56499775
Mighty hero in my book
>>
>>56502561
(You)
>>
>>56499775
Didn't he, like, order some guy to get whacked or something?
>>
>>56502622
Apparently that was bullshit the FBI made up just to get him indicted

He was never actually charged with that
>>
>>56502599
Okay?
>>
>>56502622
>i heard it on the GoyBoxâ„¢

cool
>>
>>56502741
hi pol
>>
>>56499775
>life prison sentence
What the fuck? I thought he maybe got like 10-20 years. I didn't think he did anything all that bad other than run a site that sold drugs
>>
>>56502645
they probably dropped the hitmen charges in exchange for info on that old guy in Thailand
they never drop charges on a drug related case unless it's for info, they wanted to throw the book at him anyways
>>
>>56500292
>>56500037
Fuck off you anti-tech shithead.
>>
>>56499775
Hero ofc.
drug laws are just fucking retarded.
>>
>>56502774
Yeah he's in there for life with no parole. Pretty fucked.

>mfw mexican cartel bosses get 25 years which the DOJ reduces in exchange for info and this poor deluded webdev monkey got life without parole without even touching a gun cause he got the book thrown at him
>>
>>56502774
The feds baited him into ordering a hit on someone. He's never getting out of jail
>>
>>56499775
none. soon-to-be-corpse would be more accurate.
>>
>>56499775
he did good but was allegedly a paranoid dick who tried to pay to off people. i guess it would be up to the server owners to come forward and say yes or no and of course they never would.
>>
>people who insist on having a say in what a different person, who they've never met, puts into their body
I don't get this meme.
>>
>>56503081
It's the owners trying to keep their herd under control
>>
>>56501502
Not him but, phase2?
>>
reminder that muh free murrica has the highest incarceration rates in the world
>>
>>56503081
The idea was to have a pretense for terrorizing counterculture leaders and communities, who were more likely to take drugs than the white, rich establishment.
>>
>>56503081

Have you ever had to deal with someone trying to harm you whilst fucked off their head on meth?
>>
>>56502840
That's fucked up. This case reminds me of Aaron Swartz. "Making an example" out of people should be illegal. What happened to everyone being equal under the law?
>>
>>56503109
>people are property of other people
>people can't look after themselves and need to be flocked around
>people who care about what other people do

>>56503145
>see guy on meth
>avoid him like the plague and let him go about his business unless he's an immediate threat to you or others
>>
incompetent
>>
>>56503149
you fell for the liberalism meme. in reality, people with power will always be "more equal than others"
