ParMaster is the Sysop/Co-Sysop of DarkF0RCE who during his time belonged to a group of teenagers involved in breaking the copy protections on software programs for Apple IIe's, particularly games. Par had a special gift for working out the copy protection parameters, which was a first step in bypassing the manufacturers' protection schemes.
The US Secret Service raided him in 1991 and took all his stuff (the 3rd time) including the credit reports of the President (iffie) and Vice President
(definitely) of the United States of America. He was in jail in New York waiting for transport, and was never really threatened or hurt, except once and it was a major incident for him but doesn't think it was influenced by anyone.
