Time flies. It's almost a year and a half ago that John McAfee joined us on air at Anonymous Bites Back for a special Halloween episode. While in hiding he decided to share his story with us.
John McAfee is an activist and cryptocurrency legend. He discussed with us what happened in his battle with the hostile United States government, his experienced in Cuba, and how he entered the crypto world. The CIA, the IRS, everything is mentioned on this podcast. He provided a unique insight on how to deal with a state that is trying to take your voice away.
The former anti virus mogul, now arebel for a cause, appeared Thursday, October 21, 2019. Shortly before going to a Halloween party he agreed to talk with Anonymous. Some on the panel are really into cryptocurrency but this wasn't the only reason to ask him to come on air. Because John McAfee was also there to speak out about corruption regarding the financial system in the USA. Next to that he explained about how this corruption took control of US politics.
Wearing Halloween make up, his life partner joined the show as well.
On October 6, 2020, McAfee was arrested in Spain over tax evasion charges. The charges were announced shortly after the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) revealed that it had brought civil charges against McAfee and that he could face 30 years in prison if convicted.
As we don't know if he will ever be able to come back with us on the air, this episode became a classic and something for the archive that will gain more importance over time.
