Hunter Moore, the subject of Netflix's 'The Most Hated Man on The Internet' has been out of prison since 2017.

She worked to gather evidence from more than 40 other women to prove that their photos had not been sent around, and that instead, the photos had been obtained via email hacking. When Kayla Laws’s nude photos appeared on Is Anyone Up?, she told her mother Charlotte that she had not ever sent the photos that appeared on the site to anyone other than to herself via email. For a short time, Moore, who referred to himself as “a professional life ruiner," was a god-like figure in his little corner of the Internet. But as new Netflix documentary The Most Hated Man on the Internet shows, he messed with the wrong woman’s daughter.

McGibney then redirected the site to his anti-bullying resource BullyVille.com. As a condition of the sale, McGibney asked Moore to write a letter apologizing to victims, in which Moore stated he "might do some writing on bullyville.com to help people who have been bullied," as he's "been on both sides of the fence. Charles Evens, the hacker Moore paid to break into email accounts, was sentenced to 25 months. Former Marine James McGibney says in the docuseries that he offered Moore less than $12,000 to acquire Is Anyone Up? in April 2012. "There's no way I'm just going to abandon all of these women that I said I was gonna help," she says. "At the end of the day, I do not want anybody to hurt themselves. In February 2015, Moore pleaded guilty to one count of unauthorized access to a protected computer to obtain information for purposes of private financial gain, and one count of aggravated identity theft. He accused McGibney on Twitter of being a pedophile. She also exhibited her grit as a determined celebrity chaser who shared her secrets in the 1988 book "Meet the Stars" (written under the name Missy Laws). "I’m literally gonna take over the world.” And it appeared he would do it at any cost. His reaction, as relayed to Rolling Stone: “Oh my God, this is gonna be the best post ever.” When photos of Charlotte Laws' daughter appeared on Moore's website, she began to suspect Moore was relying on hacking for content. The more traffic I’d have that day, I’m going to get paid for.”

Netflix's newest documentary 'The Most Hated Man On The Internet' focuses on Hunter Moore and his revenge porn site, 'Is Anyone Up?' Here's where Hunter is ...

After naked photos of her daughter were stolen and posted online, Laws dedicated herself to bringing Moore to justice. When the lawsuits started to pile on, Moore tried to claim protection through the Communications Decency Act of 1996, which said websites were not accountable for user-submitted content, Rolling Stone reported. It all started when Moore posted a photo of a girl he was dating online. Moore ended up behind bars, and the site was eventually sold to someone else. Ex-boyfriends and girlfriends began submitting nudes, along with the subject's name, hometown, social media profile, and profession. So, wondering what happened to Moore after all of this?

The self-proclaimed "king of revenge porn" Hunter Moore, who is the focus of Netflix's The Most Hated Man on The Internet, served time in prison.

Four years after launching the revenge porn side, Hunter was arrested by the FBI on charges of conspiracy, unauthorised access to a protected computer and aggravated identity theft. Hunter has since kept a relatively low profile on the professional front. And what's more, he proudly bragged about ruining the lives of his victims, claiming it was "too much fun" taking people down and that he “did not know what he would do” if he couldn't be a bully.

He served two years in prison before being granted supervised release and ordered to pay a $500,000 fine. Start your Independent Premium subscription today. The sobriquet of “the most hated man on the Internet” originated from a Rolling Stone article, published after Moore had been widely criticised for his website’s practicises.

The show tells the story of Hunter Moore, a Sacramento native who set up a revenge porn website.

Moore, from California, started the project when he was trying to send nude pictures of a woman to his friend. At this time revenge porn laws had not been created, and he even mocked the cease and desist letters that were sent to him. Netflix says: “Hunter Moore was the most hated man on the internet – that is, until his online presence saw its day of reckoning. This meant if someone, such as a potential employer, Googled that woman then this could come up. He wrote most of it while the events were still happening and finished it in prison. The self-proclaimed “professional life ruiner” is the subject of the new documentary, and the story is as troubling as it is vindicating.

Moore was sentenced to time behind bars — followed by three years of supervised release — but has completed his sentence.

“I’m still contacted by women every day and I expect that number to rise when the Netflix show is broadcast,” she told the Daily Mail. “I’m just a mum who defended her daughter, but I will make it my mission to defend anyone’s daughter.” And while Moore initially agreed to take part in the docuseries, he subsequently backed out. A little over a year later, Moore entered into a plea deal, under which he was sentenced to two and a half years in prison followed by three years of supervised release, and ordered to pay a $2,000 fine. He was also required to notify of his probation officer of “every computer, computer-related device, screen name, password, e-mail account or ISP” he used or created during his three years of supervised release, according to his plea deal (which VICE shared in 2015). The site launched in 2010, and was only live for about two years, but had an outsize impact — both for its victims, and its founder. The site didn’t require that those featured in the images had consented to sharing them; often, the images were submitted by the subjects’ exes, who had received the pictures in confidence — hence why the the site became famous as a destination for revenge porn.

Hunter Moore, of the revenge porn site 'Is Anyone One Up?' had a girlfriend, Kirra Hughes. And she appears in Netflix's 'The Most Hated Man On The Internet.

She personifies her life motto, "don’t stop dancing when the music gets turned off," with her remorse and resilience. And she seems to feel badly about what happened. Kirra Hughes was born and raised near San Diego, California in a small beach town called Encinitas, she said in a Photobook interview. But, as the credits start rolling, everyone is left wondering where Kirra Hughes is now, and how she moved on. She moved to San Francisco when she was 18 to study fashion design, according to the documentary. Hughes watched her romance go south IRL while dating Hunter Moore, the subject of Netflix's new documentary, The Most Hated Man On The Internet.
