BBC -John McAfee: Anti-virus creator found dead in prison cell


Anti-virus software entrepreneur John McAfee has been found dead in a Barcelona prison cell, just hours after a Spanish court agreed to extradite him to the US to face tax evasion charges.

The Catalan Justice Department said prison medics tried to resuscitate him, but were not successful. It said in a statement that "everything indicates" Mr McAfee took his own life.

A controversial figure, Mr McAfee's company released the first commercial anti-virus software. It helped to spark a multi-billion dollar industry in the computer world.

I'm wondering if the word "eccentric" would accurately describe John McAfee or there's another word that would fit better.

There are many, but I'll not speak ill of the dead.

From Chicago Zombie:

Hi there. I've been away from the ZS forums for quite some time due to health issues. And now I have a little zombie hunter that takes my time.
Anyway, I heard that the forums were going to read only & I figured I would see if it was possible to get TEC9man into the memorial section.

Hi there. I've been away from the ZS forums for quite some time due to health issues. And now I have a little zombie hunter that takes my time.
Anyway, I heard that the forums were going to read only & I figured I would see if it was possible to get TEC9man into the memorial section.

He was a member of ZSC:020, but had been a member of the ZS forums since 2005.
He had a great sense of humor & stayed positive throughout all of his health struggles, which he posted about frequently. He also used to post movie reviews that people seemed to like.

This is his memorial info from a Chapter 20 thread:
"Post Mon Dec 18, 2017 7:25 pm

Services for TEC9man will be this Wednesday evening.

He even had a ZS emblem on his memorial table at his memorial service. He passed away in 2017, but there was no forum memorial section at that time.

Thank you for listening. I know this is last minute, but figured it was worth a shot. Feel free to use the link to his obituary if he is able to get to the memorial section.
Thanks,
-CZ / Lisa

At precisely 0001 Eastern Daylight Time, the ZS Forums were shut down, as per the orders of the ZS "BoD" and my resignation as the ZS Forum Admin became effective.

I hope the fucking assholes are pleased with themselves.
