Ever seen Catch Me If You Can?

If you sweep all of Ulbrichts terrible opsec under the rug (and retell it as excellent opsec), you could make a pretty compelling man vs The Man story. Consider my criticism withdrawn - fiction, "based on a true story" does usually manage to be pretty entertaining. [Edit: I do still think that a youtube video of him getting arrested would really have taken off.]
