Post by: bitkilo on December 14, 2014, 07:50:59 AM He has been very open about his identity, he didn't even try black it out on the subpena and he showed us this when he received it.
Did you think this was a secret? Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed? Post by: jdbtracker on December 14, 2014, 07:56:28 AM Damn I was hoping for some shocking revelation.
Theymos, Underworld Kingpin/mad scientist fighting for freedom. Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed? Post by: franky1 on December 14, 2014, 08:03:04 AM kind of funny that they need to waste time and money in communications and dragging a third party into court simply to hand over documents that anyone can print out.
i think theymos should simply reply to emails with these links https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3905;sa=showPosts https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=printpage;topic=175.0 and then let the courts print it out themselves Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed?

Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed? Post by: CIYAM on December 14, 2014, 10:06:55 AM I seriously don't understand, why do people care to reveal identities if people have done nothing wrong. You seriously don't think people have a fundamental right to anonymity? Although I am not anonymous here I certainly support anyone and everyone's right to be anonymous here or whether else they like. If you think that people only want to be anonymous because they "have something to hide" then I suggest you need to "think harder". Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed?

Probably my response will end up as part of public record, but I'm not going to speed up the process or make it easier for people to find. I already PMed the users affected by this. Maybe this is the first time Theymos experienced a formal subpoena, but I have trouble believing that this is the first time he experienced a law enforcement inquiry. This is the first government request/inquiry I've received related to Ulbricht's case. I have received a few other inquiries for other cases. Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed?

They will never trouble him again. Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed?

People have different levels of comfort with themselves in different contexts. Some people want privacy for their success and failures. The "system" wants you all to think disclosure for all behavior at all times is correct and moral just because it makes us easier to farm. Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed? Post by: jonald_fyookball on December 14, 2014, 06:06:50 PM This is BS! Why the fuck are they making Theymos
take time out of his schedule to appear in court when he can simply email them the records? Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed? Post by: Flashman on December 14, 2014, 06:10:40 PM It's possibly from some legal BS about not being able to cross examine a piece of paper.
Court: Is this a true and accurate copy of defendants posts on bitcointalk.org Theymos: Yes Court: Thank you, that will be all. ::) Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed?

That's what he probably did. @OP, nothing has been "revealed". Theymos' identity was never a secret + he posted that himself: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=881488.msg9728587#msg9728587 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=881488.msg9728587#msg9728587) Can you lock this pointless thread? Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed? Post by: BitcoinEXpress on December 15, 2014, 08:33:59 AM @OP,
Theymos' real name and identity was huge breaking news for the 100th time back in mid 2011. You're a tad bit late with this "killer" info. ~BCX~ Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed? Post by: Willisius on December 15, 2014, 08:38:29 AM The "news" site got their information from a post by theymos, who posted the subpoena. Theymos obviously did not care about his identity being "revealed" in this case.
Also both his identity and his address are public information, although he seems to delete posts that contain his address (at least from what I have read). Either way this is nothing new Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed? Post by: Elwar on December 15, 2014, 09:31:46 AM I think Theymos is a group of people.

Title: Re: The identity of theymos revealed? Post by: Mitchell on December 15, 2014, 09:46:33 AM That's what he probably did. Thanks for that link.
