YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

When James McGibney discovered the ‘king of revenge porn’ Hunter Moore, he instantly hated him. While planning how to take him down, a member of Anonymous contacted James and offered to team up.

Hunter Moore was then known as the ‘Internet’s most hated man’, and his infamous site was where men went to post revenge porn photos of women, alongside identifying details like their addresses and social media profiles – setting the women up to be harassed and shamed on and offline.

After pretending to be Hunter’s friend, James managed to buy Hunter’s site from under him, bringing down the 'most hated man on the internet’.
