Injustice is injustice, no matter what life you were born into. He had the resources to live a frivolous life, and instead he built a free trade platform open to everyone. It was operated as a for-profit business (how dare he?!) to maintain incentive for growth. Ross had a strict code of ethics about listings not being used to hurt other people, and that was enforced on Silk Road. Comparing him to P Diddy who used his fame to prey on minors and cover up the abuse is absurd on its face.

The feds railroaded him, and stole most, if not all of his profits. Then they attempted to take his entire life, two times over.
