My understanding is that Joe was asked by Donny for help with a Paypal account. At the time, he didn't know what was behind it. Donny was producing content for clients, running a studio, and managing some girls.
Joe has never told me he hacked AIM's database or copied my 2257s. The full talent database was available to anyone with a password, too. Producers could check on any talent's status.
I knew Joe Blow for years. We shot in LA, Montreal, Prague, and Budapest. He enjoyed doing scenes and had fun. He didn't have any chips on his shoulder that I knew of.
People are entitled to their own opinions but I had no problem with him.
