<strong>Dead Addict</strong> first started writing bio's 16 years ago. his first bio alluded to crimes he had recently committed, and not much else - he was but a teenager at the time. more recent bio's have confessed to many years serving multinational corporations. he has been attempting to write clever and witty bio's for almost two decades, unfortunately consistently falling short.

<strong>Dead Addict</strong> gave a talk at Defcon 2 about the future of piracy and predicted the obvious; music piracy was about to explode and become ubiquitous. When he gave his first speech his in-depth knowledge of piracy was fresh - he had been a senior member in a piracy group and understood the world intimately. It's been several years since Dead Addict's last copyright infringement, so his current insight is gleaned through meticulous study and review of public papers and interviews with admitted pirates.
