>>13033427None of those stories are real, all of the people like Faceberg ended up that way because they had family connections in the government. For example the DuckDuckGo guy has an uncle that was an executive at In-Q-Tel, the CIA's wall street investment firm.
https://alsop-louie.com/team/stephen-mendel/The CIA wanted to start a new internet portal to use for propaganda purposes, but they couldn't announce "CIA invests in new internet portal to use for propaganda purposes" because that ruins the trick, so they announced "WOW! boy genius out of nowhere with hip new new internet portal!!!1"
and then they get some flamboyant retarded teenager and get him pretend he is the kid from War Games. In the case of DuckDuckGo, the CIA/In-Q-Tel guy who provided his nephew as a patsy/frontman now sits on the board of directors of DuckDuckGo where he calls the shots there for his CIA bosses.
