The “most hated man on the Internet” was indicted by the FBI today.
Hunter Moore, dubbed the “revenge porn king” by TIME, was charged with conspiracy to “access a protected computer” as well as other counts.
Alleged associate Charles Evans also faces charges.
Moore is an infamous entrepreneur who claims to be behind the site IsAnyoneUp.com, where nude photos of people were uploaded, reportedly without consent. He would encourage users to post naked photos of their former girlfriends and boyfriends, as well as personal details about them, BBC reports.
He later handed over the site’s domain to an anti-bullying site.
Critics of Moore claim that his site has led to “revenge porn,” in which people post victims’ nude photos, their addresses and other identifying information. The act can lead to stalking and demands for more lewd photos and videos. Moore has always defended the site, claiming that it “educates the people on technology.”
