All of this really puts Lee's evangelizing of Private Internet Access into a new light, doesn't it?

Lee ... founded popular VPN company Private Internet Access, LTMI, which last year sold to an Israeli cybersecurity firm for $95.5 million.

IMHO, at this point you need to seriously consider the possibility that everything he's touched, including Freenode, could be compromised in some way, if not already a literal "honeypot"...

Off-topic: I love his new house: https://www.insider.com/south-korean-royals-california-mansi...

Andrew Lee sold Private Internet Access in 2019 and has nothing to do with them anymore. Likewise, PIA has nothing to do with Freenode.
