So, he essentially admitted that the coordinates were real and a mistake to be released.

The blog post where he wrote the fake coordinates was a clever trap is missing.. at least I can't find it.

Is anybody seeing irony in the fact that McAfee has become an entity whose suspicious signature (Behavior) has made him a suspect in an event detrimental to his host system (murder) & he's now trying to elude the dragnet laid to catch him ?

You'd think he'd find sthg better than changing directories, I mean countries.

Maybe false positive Karma is a thing after all.

Whoismcafee dot com doesn't appear to actually answer that question.

To anybody not familiar with this: Yes, the same McAfee as that spam/trojan thing that has been bundled with windows for the last decade or so.

I guess he got accused of murdering his neighbor (in Belize) and is now on the run from the Belize government.

Good for him. Hopefully he can be "safe" in relatively short order.

Another another another apology incoming.
