I don't understand how someone with such significant resources, intelligence, justified fear of governments and no dependents got himself caught in Spain, especially after John McAfee was arrested there.
What is it with Spain anyway? Its crime ridden, has a leftist government that cares more about animals than people.
There are many ways and places to keep away from "imperial entanglements" if you have resources, technical skills and no dependents.
Indeed crazy story, also Kim Dotcom recently is set to be extradited from New Zealand to the US. Telegram CEO Pavel Durov got arrested in France.
I would have thought it was obvious that if the US Deep State is after you then stay away from US vassal states.
