Missing Internet Pioneer Phil Agre Is Found Alive

May not be quite so simple, there's an update:

UPDATE, 1/31, 6:55pm: I received an email from one of the people who has actively been involved in the search for Phil, and she isn't satisfied with the information released by the police. "For several reasons we cannot provide details, but what we can tell you is that the police did talk with Phil for a few minutes," she said. "Police standards for removing a missing persons notice is quite minimal. Those of us guiding the search for Phil have more detailed information about the interaction between the officer and Phil that is not being made public. The information we did receive gave us no evidence that he is actually "safe". Therefore we are continuing to search for him."

You'd think if they were continuing to search for him that they would tell the interwebz what the mystery information is as an aide to locating him, no?

What's the difference between a missing person and someone who wants to be missing?

How it hurts.

Who?
