Reading the back and forth emails was pretty entertaining. I wonder what caused FBI to go so cold on him for a while -- was it a negotiating tactic, or was there a block due to Sabu or other leads, or was it mostly unrelated bureaucratic stupidity?
It seemed to me like it was mainly just "forth".
Thordarson seemed like he really wanted to be in contact with the FBI, but the FBI agent he emailed didn't seem too interested in what he had to offer. Particularly since it seemed like the FBI could get the data that they wanted without having to deal with people like Thordarson (this citing the seizure of the contents of Snorrason's Gmail account).
But I have to say, Thordarson sending those short emails consisting of semi-trite messages to an FBI agent wererather amusing.
"ok doki"
"Merry Christmas :-)"
"Happy New Year:-)"
Seems rather unserious and informal on Thordarson's part. Not the sort of behavior you'd except from a spy, eh.
