#3I'm done with Kim, every time he starts talking about some new awesome thing he's planning, it just feels more and more like carefully crafted PR stunts, and on top of that every time I ask him on Twitter if he will consider making it FOSS he ignores the question.
When are we going to realize RMS is and was right and what the world needs now is to protect user freedom?

#4It seems like Dotcom these days just uses his position and his notoriety to push products that would otherwise not get much attention. He really tries to leverage his image as an "internet savior" who fights against the evil US government. I haven't been quite so impressed. I think he is just a regular business man more than anything.

This is exactly what he is. He's just a business man with a PR firm that makes sure his press releases get posted on reddit and HN.
If you spend even 5 minutes researching his history you will quickly learn he is not an innovator, he's not a crusader for freedom and he's not a hero. He's just another greedy person chasing the dollar via the easiest routes he can find.

Regular business men don't commit fraud.

Although I agree with your comment, this particular article makes no mention of "fighting for an internet freedom". It's just a very regular - and not so sexy, IMO, product announcement... which proves your point of him being a regular business man.

His whole life is a PR stunt.
First he ripped off a bunch of people in Germany, when everyone knew that he is a fraud, he went abroad. Everyone here thought he was done for, but suddendly he comes back into the news... because he is hunted by the US for criminal activities.
