John McAfee, a cybersecurity industry pioneer who would go on to promote various cryptocurrencies and flee international law enforcement, has died in Spain, according to multiple news reports.
McAfee, 75, died in a jail cell in Barcelona while awaiting extradition to the U.S. on charges of tax evasion, the Spanish newspaper El Pais reported Wednesday. Spain’s High Court had authorized McAfee’s transfer to the U.S. hours before, some eight months after police arrested McAfee in a Barcelona airport.
