Buy merch? Anyone who puts their credit card number anywhere near anything this guy has touched has made a terrible mistake.
He probably is smart enough to accept Monero
Or Visa Gift Card?
The guy lives in Russia, so there's not much the FBI is going to do.
Askbindua to do it. They dont have a problem with that.
Mobile sites that don't let you zoom should be on FBI most wanted list
You can usually override zoom controls in the accessibility settings of most browsers. Comes in real handy for me
Though I do question why it was a choice given to website developers by default in the first place.
Making t-shirts of your own wanted poster is trolling? It's definitely mocking them, but trolling is much more than that.
Not in 2023. In 2023 trolling is as simple as having another point of view.
I just think trolling requires some form of incitement leading to action by the victim. You post something inflammatory online, and get other people angrily posting back.
Making the t-shirt doesn't troll them, it doesn't get them to do anything. It's just a response to them, they publicly said he's a wanted alleged criminal and he publicly stuck his tongue out back at them. Now, if he made these t-shirts and then law enforcement tried to find him through his t-shirt supply chain, only to find that the t-shirts had been printed by the detective's mum's Etsy company, then that would be trolling.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Earlier this year, the U.S. government indicted Russian hacker Mikhail Matveev, also known by his online monikers “Wazawaka” and “Boriselcin,” accusing him of being “a prolific ransomware affiliate” who carried out “significant attacks” against companies and critical infrastructure in the U.S. and elsewhere.
The feds also accused him of being a “central figure” in the development and deployment of the notorious ransomware variants like Hive, LockBit, and Babuk.
After he agreed to do an interview, we asked Matveev a dozen questions about his life as a most wanted hacker, but he didn’t answer any of them.
“I don’t like this designation — hacker, we are a separate type of specialist, practical and using our knowledge and resources without water and writing articles,” he wrote in an X direct message.
“I was interested only in terms of financial motivation, roughly speaking, I was thinking about what to do, sell people or become.
Matveev’s online shenanigans, which include giving lengthy interviews to cybersecurity journalists, posting selfie videos of himself driving around while listening to Metallica, and writing about his hacking activities, show that he does not seem to care about being on the FBI’s most wanted list.
The original article contains 431 words, the summary contains 195 words. Saved 55%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
What a well-balanced and level-headed fellow.
Absolute chad.
