I first heard about this dude many months ago. Why did it take so long to bring him in? He was pretty open about who he is and what he is doing.

  The article establishing his identity was only published a month ago[1] and the security expert seems to be impressed with how fast it took to bring him in. ”Between when we, and an anonymous colleague, found his opsec mistake on November 10th to his last Telegram activity on December 6, law enforcement set the speed record for the fastest turnaround time for an American federal cyber case that I have witnessed in my career,” she said.

    By the time kerb published his story this has being going on for a long long while. He was openly bragging about being in army and stationed in SK. I mean, didn't army or some agency start investigating this before Kerb?
