I think the sex charges are a red herring. The timing of those charges is ridiculously suspicious and the charges just as silly. Here's a recent article.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2010/de ... nge-sweden

I don't know what the laws are in Sweden, but here it's not actually a crime for a guy to argue over using a condom. If the actions described by his accusers in this case are criminal then at least half the men in any town are probably just as guilty.

I don't really have a problem with the dude trying to accomplish big things. It's a dangerous thing that he's been doing all these years. And it's not unlike what we do around here. Granted, we're only going after relatively small orgaizations as compared to world governments. But that can get pretty beasty sometimes. If I had the power at the time, I might well have considered holding back some dox in order to protect myself from Sue Scheff and others. Might have saved us a good many server hops and we might not have lost 4 months worth of data. Course, we also might not have gotten to know our Anonymous friends quite so well, either. And that would have been a lot of missed lulz.
