Yes, it's a joke, idiot. Because the FBI always uses a dancing anime girl on websites they shut down.

I did; I thought the 5.4mil racketeering nathan guy was the zzt flimsy guy, and that the fbi shut down every single one of his sites.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

on flimsy's site it says it was shut down for copyright infringment, not racketeering. The article also has the URL for the site which is not flimsy's.

i just used racketeering to describe nathan peterson; he made enough dough off of ibackups.net to get a car collection and a yacht... poor word choice on my part.

i thought that flimsy was nathan l. peterson, and that he ran both castlezzt and ibackups, among others sites that i wouldn't know about. In an interview, flimsy says:
Do you have any artistic pursuits other than making games?

Yes, but I can't discuss them. (because they are illegal)
granted, it said 'artistic pursuits', and not 'business', or 'career'... but i wanted to know if someone related to zzt was 1) a millionaire, and/or 2) busted by feds.
