        I think this is what they are referring to.

        I saw a Lemmy thread about it, but the main takeaway is that it was a completely different program than what we know and love. It just happened to be named the same IIRC.

          Criminal matrix needed you to buy access for thousands of dollars, cool matrix is free and open to anyone. Technology isn’t even the same.

          He’s either trolling or getting Matrix confused with MATRIX, a separate platform that got in trouble for supporting criminals.
