On Monday, at the TechCrunch Disrupt, McAfee lashed the media personnel for not taking his campaign seriously. As he said,
John McAfee is running for the president under his self-created “Cyber Party” with a prime motto of saving the United States citizens from the mindless surveillance of the government. McAfee time and again boasts of his technical background and how he can bring in better reforms for the public.
The cybersecurity pioneer is usually very vocal about America’s interference in other countries and questions the existing and previous governments’ policies and decisions on critical issues. When asked about current international issues like the USA’s relationship with Iran, he said, “We are bankrupt as a nation. We have to save ourselves first.”
