I feel really bad for Mr. Nakamoto. He would have likely been found out at some point, but this is the worst way for it to happen. Now everyone knows.
If he was put off by just one journalist visit, I imagine he'll consider relocating now.
- danielweber 13y agoWas he "put off"? He seems to have consented to the interview, and to have posed for a picture. Having interacted enough with bad members of the media [NB: there are also good ones], I'm not so naive as to think that there's no way they could have persuaded him to do it with lies or bullshit or empty threats, but without evidence for that he could have just said "I don't want to talk to you" and left it at that. EDIT: I've re-read and might be changing my position. He didn't actually consent to any in-person interview. It was very very clear he didn't want to talk in person. So where did the picture come from?
- jnbiche 13y agoWhy do you think that's a picture he posed for? She probably got it from one of the family members she spoke to.
- danielweber 13y agoI am now unsure of that and backing away from that position. Is there a print-version of this article? That would show the photo credit in the margin. Too bad photo credits don't seem to be the custom on the web.
- fredsted 13y agoYeah, Newsweek is going print again tomorrow. What a coincidence, huh?
- path411 13y agoIn the online article it says: "Satoshi Nakamoto in Lancaster, Calif. Credit: Photo via Photobucket.com via Satoshi Nakamoto (Wagumabher)" Sounds more like she uncovered his personal photobucket and took an image.
- danielweber 13y agoThanks, that wasn't there a few hours ago.
