What do you guys think of this? Many people actually considered him a "hero" Because of his beliefs. 
I personally disagree with the website but I understand where he was coming from with this idea and the government controlling the internet too much.

Pardon my ignorance to this matter, but why didn't he just flee the country and go to a country with no extradition laws? He had more than enough money to do so and live lavishly.

Why are you still on Silk Road? It's all about Evolution.

Sentencing one man to life in prison won't scare away others. Take a look at prohibition. Sucks that he got life but hey he knew what he was doing.
