Every time people mention Szabo, and every time someone needs to debunk this rumour. I'm on the phone, so it won't be me this time.

One of the many argument against this theory is that Szabo is not much of a computer programmer, and Satoshi was very fluent with C++ among other skills.

There's Hal Finney, the creator of PGP, which was a good programmer, a cypherpunk, and died a few years ago. The fact that Satoshi has shown inhuman restraint in showing up or saying a single world since 201x would be neatly explained if they were dead.

I already talked at length about this, but no human would be able to keep their mouth shut and assets frozen if they were alive today and held a few billion dollars and spiritual reigns of the most controversial economic invention of the century. Not a single one.

Let alone with the best opsec ever seen not to be nabbed, identified or killed by any of the major intelligence agencies in the world.

Occam's razor.
