As far as I can tell, this is by Daniel Brandt - previously of (now defunct) Google Watch and a bunch of other similar projects over the past 27+ years: http://www.leavegooglebehind.com/news/2012/02/google-critic-...

(Based on the IRS letter posted on the site at http://www.crimeflare.com/gifs/irslet.gif which mentions "Public Information Research Inc", Brandt's organization)

Update: confirmed, here's a page on the site which Daniel signs his name to: http://www.crimeflare.com/cfs.html

I'm ignorant of who this man is; is there a particular reason his character should be known in the context of this website?
