On the Run, John McAfee Denounces Belize Government

He has style, whether he's guilty or innocent

John McAfee is still in hiding, but he isn't idle. The American antivirus pioneer sent me an essay this morning in which he offers his perspective on Belize's history and politics, and his conflicts with the government — conflicts that have now reached a head.

"It's a system that functions more or less smoothly if you play by the rules," McAfee writes. "I am not fond of these rules however and I openly oppose them. This is the root of my struggle here in Belize."
