Millionaire anti-virus software tycoon John McAfee unleashed a barrage of criticism of the IRS in a series of tweets Thursday and bragged that he has not filed a tax return in eight years.
"I have not filed a tax return for 8 years," McAfee wrote before calling taxes illegal and complaining about government services. He noted that he lives off the money made from McAfee Inc. - the company he founded and resigned from in 1994 - and called himself a "prime target" for the IRS before writing "Here I am."

In another tweet, McAfee likened the tax agency to the Nazi SS and said its beginnings are rooted as an intimidation arm of the government during Prohibition. He cited the Civil War period as an example to abolish the income tax: "prior to the civil war there was no income tax, yet we managed. Stay tuned for the truth."
McAfee has posted several bizarre tweets in recent years. Over Twitter in 2018, he accused his enemies of spiking something he ingested in an attempt to kill him.

Tax guy here. I have been asked by clients about tax protests and not filing. I tell them about Wesley Snipes and his time as a guest of the federal penal system. I also tell them that I have never heard of a tax protester that has not gone to jail.

This guy is either mentally unstable or doesn't give a shit. The fact he keeps posting about having sex with whales makes it hard to tell which one.
"Enough of the "Whale Fucking is non-consensual" bullshit. A Humpback Whale weighs 70,000 pounds, is fifty feet long, can dive more than a quarter mile and can crush ships with a single swipe of its tail. If a human manages to fuck one, you damn well better believe it's consensual"
"Some call me "Whale Fucker". Alright. There's a private club of a few dozen Maori men and one butch woman - that meet in Molokai each year to fuck a whale. True. Men on padeleboards herd the whale while one tries to fuck it. Wouldn't let me in the club. Tried it alone. Epic fail."
"Please people . . This is NOT an acceptable way to fuck a whale. Those who indulge in compassionate whale fucking do so while the whale is resting on the surface, diving underneath to perform the deed."
The last was posted this morning on his twitter and was accompanied with a photo that depicts a naked man pretending to hump a beached whale.

For anyone who has followed John McAfee in the last decade, he is obviously batshit crazy.
If anyone doubts this, simply look at any article where he is mentioned. He thinks he is trying going to be assassinated every month or so.
