That wasn't him. It was some "Christian feminist activist" woman named Laila Mickelwaite and Benjamin Nolot who got all the payment processors to drop the site and then PH panicked and nuked all unverified videos. I think the owner at the time was some French Canadian swarthoid whose house burned down shortly after and ownership I assume changed hands in the meantime.
That inb4 it was all owned by jewish conglomerate (((Mindgeek))).
