‘Love, sex, action, jail. Antivirus pioneer John McAfee selling his life story

Posted by: WhoIsMcAfee , July 5, 2013

Antivirus pioneer John McAfee selling life story by The Toronto Star

The international fugitive John McAfee captured headlines last year fleeing Belize police. Now, he’s filmed a documentary about his life with a Montreal company.

MONT TREMBLANT, QUE.—The southern town of John McAfee’s youth was a quiet place in the 1950s.

  It was an era that seemed, to the young British-born boy with an abusive father, plastic and artificial, one in which everyone was dying of boredom.

  So the boy, who would decades later found the ubiquitous antivirus software, changed it, leading the neighbourhood boys out into the forest surrounding Salem, Va., where they built their own world: of freedom, without adults or chores or calls for dinner.

“And it was great,” says McAfee, a tall, lean 67-year-old now. “We got to escape from the real world and create our own.”

He’s been doing it ever since.

    A classic “CoastToCoast” featuring Mr. McAfee the night of Oct. 23rd. Appreciative of the (rare) straight talk regarding the health scare website fiasco and was relieved to finally get the real story behind the Belize scandal. The presentation of these events I got from the mainstream news media bore little or no resemblance to the reality of the situation as described by John. Welcome back to the U.S. and I hope your formidable intellect can be brought to bear on our troubling domestic situation what with the apparent implosion of what not so long ago was considered to be basic civil liberties.

    Im eagerly awaiting to hear the documentary come from the original source instead of having it travel through multiple layers and end up distorting more than it gets right.

    For what its worth, Sir Richard Branson does not have a damn thing on you. Keep your head up, and hope you end up reclaiming all of your rightful possessions from Belize

    I can completely concur. My life has been similar,
    albeit less lucrative.

    Thank you for posting this. It is always nice to read articles about you that are new and fresh.

    I am glad to see the media is slowly moving themselves away from sensationalism, misrepresentations and citing themselves as sources.

    Also thank you for keeping us up-do-date on what’s going on with all the projects…and with you 🙂
