What happened to Hunter Moore aka The Most Hated Man On The ... (digitalspy.com)

Hunter Moore became despised by women as he used his website to profit off revenge porn and hacked photos. Here's where he is now ahead of Netflix doc.

When the women went to the LA police they were dismissed, with claims asking why the photos even existed. It was finished while he was in prison, ready for publication on his release. But to Moore and his readership, the "fun" came from those who weren't complicit in their information being shared. It’s been noted that Moore no longer has a social-media presence, however there are several sites that claim to be him, including a Twitter page. According to the Communications Decency Act of 1996, website owners are absolved of what’s posted by their users (it's what protects Twitter and Facebook from a billion defamation suits). In some cases, according to the documentary, there were people who were paraplegic and blind, aged up to 70 years old or were disabled. Things then took an even more sinister turn when more women made claims they had never sent anyone the photos that were suddenly appearing on the site. In turn, the friend started sharing photos back, and soon they were both collecting a cache of explicit photographs on the website. From there, other people started to hear about it, and the site started to grow. Moore started embracing internet fandom, publicly declaring himself the owner of the site, which at its height attracted more than 350,000 visitors a day. This would include phone numbers, social-media pages and locations of their homes and jobs. In the foreword, he explains he wrote most of the book while it was happening in real time, through to his conviction and beyond.

Netflix's Most Hated Man On The Internet: How we caught Hunter ... (Metro)

Hunter Moore, the creator of revenge porn site IsAnyoneUp.com, is the subject of Netflix documentary: The Most Hated Man on the Internet.

Moore was determined to return more debauched than ever, announcing he was starting a new website that had the same premise as IsAnyoneUp.com, but with an added ‘map’ feature, so fans could turn up at the homes of those with nudes on the website. ‘As I researched the site, I could tell some of the girls were underage and Moore needed to take some of the content down,’ James says. In the UK, cases of revenge porn are thought to have risen by 41% between 2020 and 2021 alone. But both James, and Charlotte, found themselves another powerful ally in the guise of Anonymous – the ‘chaotic good’ internet vigilante group comprised of highly-skilled hackers, who also wanted to bring Moore to justice. Moore accepted a plea deal for charges of hacking and identity theft in 2015, and received 30 months jail time, as well as being banned from Facebook. Since his release, Moore has kept a low profile, saying he wants a ‘peaceful life’ after serving time behind bars. ‘I went to his site and within 10 seconds on being IsAnyoneUp.com, I just knew I really f***ing hated the guy. Moore was now receiving thousands of submissions a day: teachers, nurses, elderly women – even a paraplegic’s nudes were leaked on the site, all with their contact details attached. He often replied to cease and desist letters with ‘LOL.’ In another instance, Moore responded to one request about removing photos with a picture of his own penis. Moore’s internet infamy saw his antics covered in the media, seeing him land somewhat fawning interviews with high-profile magazines such as Rolling Stone and Vice, which had more than just a touch of admiration for his outlandish behaviour. Now, everyone is going to be made aware of Moore, and the website’s grimy history in Netflix’s new documentary, The Most Hated Man On The Internet. Another devotee wrote: ‘If you had AIDS, I’d still f**k you just to say I have AIDS and that I got AIDS from you.’ IsAnyoneUp.com emerged from the primordial ooze of the primitive days of social media in 2011, with 20-something party prowler Hunter Moore having initially bought the domain for club promotion.

The self-proclaimed "king of revenge porn" Hunter Moore, who is the focus of Netflix's The Most Hated Man on The Internet, served time in prison.

Four years after launching the revenge porn side, Hunter was arrested by the FBI on charges of conspiracy, unauthorised access to a protected computer and aggravated identity theft. Hunter has since kept a relatively low profile on the professional front. And what's more, he proudly bragged about ruining the lives of his victims, claiming it was "too much fun" taking people down and that he “did not know what he would do” if he couldn't be a bully.
