Haha--turns out regular guy is actually a regular guy! The horror. The horror.
The only problem with this revelation is I accidentally clicked on a Gizmodo link.
The NY Times story about him at least acknowledged the hypocrisy of stones and glass houses.
I wonder if Internet culture will ever catch up to the reality of the Internet? The availability of information should make people more careful about tut-tutting behavior that's very obviously very common. I doubt it though. I don't think Reddit hates him, though. The only people that are currently hating him are the perpetually outraged crowd who hates everyone.
That said, the guy was an idiot for not using a clean account in that AMA.
