As someone on the outside, it seems like there's some sort of arms race with journalists. In this case, if she hadn't doxed him, some other journalist would have and then they'd have (supposedly) gotten more views. At least this is what the mentality looks like to me, an outsider. Anyway, it's hard to tell what Nakamoto's motives really are, but if he's just concerned about his privacy (as he seems to be trying to communicate) there are so many better ways to have gone about that.
Action on his part, or McGrath Goodman's? Yeah, I echo the sentiments made thus far by yourself and thenewgreen. Really hope this doesn't end poorly... :(...if he's just concerned about his privacy (as he seems to be trying to communicate) there are so many better ways to have gone about that.
True. I imagine that he didn't really expect this to take off like it did, but since he's such a hermit with an oath of silence, we're limited largely to conjecture.
