How will the world remember John McAfee?

         I'm sure many of you have heard the news.

         The colorful and controversial personality, John McAfee has committed suicide in jail. Sounds familiar? Well, it should if you want to link it to an Epstein-like scenario. Some of you remember him as the guy who said he'd eat his own dick if BTC didn't reach a certain price.

         I don't worship the guy, but it's undeniable that he was an influential person in crypto. For many, crypto is where they first learned the name McAfee.

         For me, the earliest memory of his name was in the early to mid 2000s when my stepdad used McAfee antivirus. I hated it. It was a memory hog on the computers and sometimes crashed the computers. Since then, I have not heard the name again until I got into crypto, and especially in 2017-2018.

         Did he commit suicide? We don't know yet. In fact, we don't even know if he faked his death (again). I lean towards that he didn't kill himself. I'm sure the rabbit hole is deep.

         The world and the players seems to be a lot more intertwined than they appear. But, that's beyond the scope of this post.

         How about it? How will history remember him? In crypto? In the greater tech industry? What comes to your mind when you think of John McAfee?

The antivirus that becomes a glutton to my computer until I find a replacement. Not aware about the controversy about his life, I get hints here and there from random YouTube vids talking about him after some conspiracy theory vids unrelated to him ofcourse.

His legacy and reputation can never be quench in the heart of many not to talk of his products. I am sure any time anyome is using his anti virus we will definitely remeber this day.
What a great loss.
RIP to him

I'm more interested what he might have known by this point. I just don't think it's a suicide.

Just because they say it is, doesn't mean it was.

I strongly believe there more to it and the security angent need to investigate. Because it not really easy to commit suicide especially to someone of that calibre who has built lot of reputation with his antirus product

I'll always remember him as the memory hogger bugged-anti-virus crappy thing. I didn't know he was even influential in crypto until the dick eating thing.

Definitely as the crappy notification that pops up that "your computer is no longer protected" when you uninstall McAfee for Norton....

It's his crappy antivirus that annoyed me to no end that comes to mind on hearing the name. Faked his death? No, I didn't know that. Need to check it out.

I think the faking death part were the heart attacks to avoid being deported back to Belize for his neigh it’s death or something.

He got away with fighting the globalist/leftist deep state...for a little while

I don't think he was really fighting. Felt more like trolling.

Probably nothing. I say this because there has to be a reason for him to have been killed, my opinion is though, and eventually we will see if it comes to fruition by nothing ever coming of it, is we are dealing with a man who simply didn't want to go out of this world without some sort of mystery twist to replace the fact he couldn't face dying in a prison someplace after having been on top of the world and dying a loser in the end, as someone who squandered his fortune and died penniless and unimportant. Know matter his low points in life he always somehow managed to rebound, this time he wasn't rebounding and he simply created another adventure to take his life into another realm of importance in his own death. Something like that, we'll see, well maybe we won't as that would be the objective. John died as adventurous as he lived his life.

He was certainly the adventurous type.

Well I knew him from the antivirus software and I think I left that on my first few computers. After I uninstalled it and saw the performance increase, I never kept it on my computer anymore. With all the alternatives online, there is no point in keeping it.

I think what stands out the most from him would probably how much he didn't want to pay taxes. With the a few shills of random coins/cryptos.

Yeah, I think the tax evasion part is about the ICOs.

Hard to believe that he committed suicide but that's the news as of now. I too think that its not suicide.

He backed out of that bet a long time ago.

I literally only knew him as the founder of a virus software I used briefly, until I replaced it with NOD32, AVG, Kaspersky, etc.

I'm kind of speechless regarding all the other details that I'm learning about just now.

Surreal!

But anyway, thanks for posting, I definitely learned something. 😁 🙏

I personally will remember him as an eccentric, unstable, dodgy guy who talked a lot of shit.

McAfee became a degenerate. He had lots of underage girls when he went into the jungle to find the cure to cancer. He or his girlfriend killed Gregory Faull. When he got into crypto he was known as a semi-scamming con man extorting shit coiners. He was a loose cannon. Did he kill himself? Probably. He was old, caught, broke and looking at spending the rest of his life behind bars. Why would the Gov. off him? He was no Epstein that had dirt on every powerful person in the world. He was a degenerate at the end of his life and he probably decided to go out rather than rot in jail. We'll see though.

On the other hand, Epstein didn't kill himself.

I think the drama that might follow should be interesting.

I'm tired of it thought because it muddies up real conspiracies like Epstein, COVID, etc.
