Former antivirus software creator John McAfee found dead in jail in Spain. He was awaiting extradition to the US for allegedly not paying taxes on cryptocurrency, consulting, and other business arrangements. McAfee rose to fame after creating antivirus firm McAfee Associates in 1987, which was later acquired by Intel in 2010. His exploits, lifestyle, political beliefs, and zest for cryptocurrency have made him a cult figure for many. For years, McAfee has been claiming that the US government wanted to kill him.
