His last few months as a snitch he changed his twitter pic to an islamic black standard militant flag and was openly calling for violence and 'cyber-terrorism'. Ridiculous

What would you have him do; change his profile pic to a US flag while working undercover?

I'd have him continue his previous activities in a similar fashion to avoid the chance that his current actions are a message to important actors that he has been poisoned or is being watched in some way.

everyone knows he's an actor for the state anyway, but a quick temperance change online would be a pretty big red flag for many.

It was a red flag. One day he is lulzsec doing lulzy mischief, disappears and comes back inciting terrorism and giving big ups to reactionary militant islam.
