  Great link! Only five minutes long, yet very interesting to hear the interactions between the two. I especially enjoyed hearing the interviewer begrudgingly admit that it wasn't just women but also men on the site. He (Garfield) tries desperately to paint Moore as pure evil in every way, but is repeatedly forced to admit that Moore's actions are legal and in line with values of our country's laws (er, our laws until October 2013).

    Legal does not mean good or right, of course. The guy is still a complete scumbag, emotionally broken at some point in his early development I imagine.

      > emotionally broken at some point in his early development Yeah, that was my first thought when I saw him interviewed. He had no empathy at all. He basically admitted he ran a shady business that monetises peoples' misfortunes, but, hey, if he didn't someone else would. As if that justifies it, somehow.

  In December, they did a piece [1] on the woman who got the FBI involved (i.e. discovered the hacking aspect). Also a good listen. [1] http://www.onthemedia.org/story/why-one-moms-investigation-might-actually-stop-revenge-porn/ http://www.onthemedia.org/story/why-one-moms-investigation-m...

    I read this before hearing the 5 min interview, I expected a totally different personality or even voice. He sounds a lot more calm and non threatening than what the women experienced ... weird.
