In the list of apps he was using I don't see any mention of a VPN. How much you want to bet he raw dogged it with encrypted apps over the clearnet so it was trivial to leak his real IP address

He posted the AI filth to a "public server", so I'm willing to bet his plan was just full of holes. I don't mind pedos getting taken down, buy I do mind encrypted software being owned by the government - any government.
