They won't catch him
He died before the spree started and has been releasing all these messages on a time delay.
An anonymous cyber villain has led Japanese police on a merry dance over the past few months, culminating in the capture on Monday of a cat said to be carrying a computer virus on a memory card attached to its collar.

What bothers me with this report is that there is a disturbing world-wide trend beginning to emerge of felines being involved in criminal activity where tech is involved!

Talk about "I iz underz your desk, installing meh malwarez!" - this shit just got real!
This the same guy responsible for the fake emails that led to a group of people being forced into confessing crimes they didn't commit by the Japanese Police force?
And who thought "an IP address was all the evidence they needed" (Along with a forced confession?)
I'm guessing the memory card actually had a picture of Goatsie
