I am glad that nobody has caught "Max" in all these years.

The British signal intrusion from "Vrillon of the Ashtar Galactic Council" also mentioned in this article is pretty wild!

I’m pretty sure the last time this came up somebody on HN talked about meeting the people that did it (he knew them at the time it happened) along with some other interesting unpublished details.

Looks like a person who claimed (4 years ago) to know the person who did it, and has recently ruled them out per the linked Reddit thread.
