Was McCabe the FBI link to Barlow harassment?
Kapor, founder of software company Lotus, said Thursday in a phone interview that he met Barlow after reading his online post about an unpleasant encounter he had with FBI investigators over what they thought was his connection with some hackers. Kapor said he’d had a similar experience, so he sympathized. They met in person in Wyoming and talked about the need to advocate for digital rights. Soon afterward, early Sun Microsystems employee John Gilmore got on board by writing “a significant check” and became an EFF co-founder.
