So my broker just reached out to me and apparently mcaffees sportfisher may go on the market. I’m thinking of buying it.

Lol 31 TB? Who's actually going to download that
It's 31TB split between 31000 people. The people were selected via a lottery he held. It's up to those people to compile and release whatever they find.
The switch was triggered but I can't tell if the distribution has started yet. Guess we will see.

4chan is saying the dead man's trigger is tied to his twitter account. If nothing is posted there within 7 days, the trigger is released. No idea if true or not.

So now that twitter knows, they can 'let someone hack his account' and post shit every 6 days.

I’m willing to bet the first thing you do is get the floors redone.

Damn it, I came in just to talk about meeting him at defcon a few years ago and now my work has been pushed aside so I can go down the conspiracy rabbit hole. Thanks again FoH.

OK so I believe McAfee didn't kill himself, but, all the Q theories and the dead mans switch NFT is bullshit. There is no reason for someone who has "31TB+" of information to split it up and release it in some clandestine way, if it existed, it would be in the hands of all of the world news organizations by now. If there's a "switch", you just have to flick it. And if thousands or millions of documents or media that expose such powerful people existed, someone, somewhere would have leaked something concrete by now.

The guy has done nothing but burn capital, do speed, fuck whores and troll for the past couple decades. He definitely planned this out years ahead of time.

I definitely had the same thought that it looked like OKC, or that one embassy bombing
