Secondly altcointalk is hosted outside the U.S jurisdiction, it's one of the safest forum out there. Something theymos should have done a long time ago.
This would not improve any legal safety for Bitcointalk unless theymos himself also moved outside U.S. jurisdiction. What is stopping law enforcement from forcing him to hand over database access and/or records from the "off-shore" servers, in the event they come for questioning or arrest?
thyemos' mistake was messing with his privacy and location; I had no idea he was going down a street in the U.S buying McDonald's. I used to think he was the closest thing to Satoshi in terms of privacy, but I was wrong.
If only the site was hosted on one of BRICS servers. Who knows.
You used to think theymos was the closest thing to satoshi in terms of privacy? That’s a wild statement to make. I don’t think theymos was ever anonymous was he? The first time I googled him I came across his real name in seconds. I don’t think he ever even made an attempt to try and hide or be anonymous. Maybe I’m wrong?
