Publishing under pseudonyms is as old as writing itself. Same
   criticisms then as today.

   It's one of those awkward, "both are right but in different ways
   dept".

   Personally, the anarchist in me likes the fact that he did this.

   Yet also, I wouldn't lend him a nickel. Can't trust the guy to
   be on the same page as you. He came clean afterwards, but any
   business dealings with him after that point would require extra
   scrutiny. He might have some higher purpose in mind but that
   higher purpose might involve deceit, potentially at crucial
   junctions.

   So, I can admire a person in one sense, while also recognizing
   that he's a bit scammy too.

   But mostly, I applaud him. He proved a point. And like [1]Scott
   Forman ; I don't know if it's revenge or activism or something
   we can't even imagine, but it's interesting in any case.
