Christopher Bouzy is a terminally online Twitter user whose software, BotSentinel.com, flags "disruptive" accounts, where "disruptive" generally means "expressing an opinion that Mr. Bouzy personally does not agree with." He came to some level of prominence during the Amber Heard/Depp trial, taking the position that most of the anti-Heard sentiment was manufactured and being widely quoted to that effect in the media. Since then he's gotten in an autistic slapfight with minor LawTube streamer Nate the Lawyer, who has hired minor conservative hanger-on Ron Coleman to sue Bouzy, and has filed a brief that reads like a Kiwifarms thread.

Background
Mr. Bouzy's background is in computer science. He describes this work as "building servers." His LinkedIn describes his job as "computer service technician." He worked for the NYC Department of Education.
He also posted his ID from Brooklyn College of City University in an attempt to prove . . . something. archive
Bouzy says he is a "serial entrepreneur" who "launched several startups, and coded dozens of desktop and mobile apps" (his website, About section).
The Cryptocurrency Saga
At one point Bouzy had his own cryptocurrency, archive which he called "Bytecent." It was describe as a "blockchain powered social rewards network. I don't even know what those words mean in that order. I know that it wasn't successful. By December 2019 the project had essentially folded, and Bouzy made the project open source after raising money to that purpose from his few hangers-on.
The Meghan Markle Saga
Bouzy first squirmed onto the world stage defending Meghan Markle. The depth of my disinterest knows no limit, so I welcome any assistance figuring this out, but here's what I've got.
The erstwhile reality TV actress and current Duchess of Sussex is a race-baiting pain. Many people hate her guts and take to the Internet to share their feelings. Other people adore her and take to the Internet to defend her honour.
Bouzy's firm was allegedly hired to defend Markle and clean up her image. His firm released a report on "hate sites" targeting Markle: Coordinated Hate Campaign Targeting Harry and Meghan.
Bouzy set about getting these negative youtube channels kicked off of Youtube, cementing himself as a crybully worthy of Taylor Lorenz.
Crybully Bouzy
This saga got a fair amount of media attention, most or all of which was friendly to Bouzy:

Members of Anti-Meghan Markle Hate Groups Exposed archive
Podcast The Royal Report: The Million-Dollar World of Meghan Markle Hate Accounts
A marked exception was Newsweek, which decided to do a journalism and asked Twitter about the whole thing. They found that "Meghan Markle troll accounts that filled Twitter with thousands of hateful posts were mainly held by real people not bots," and that of the 55 accounts Bot Sentinel asked them to deactivate, only four were actually problematic. Twitter pointed out that these accounts were deactivated for violations of Twitter policy but were run by unique users. archive
The pro-Markle people started a change.org petition to get Bouzy suspended from Twitter. archive
Christopher Bouzy v. Caroline Orr Bueno
A PhD and super Liberal Caroline Orr Bueno says Bouzy improperly used some of her research. archive
He says he didn't archive and also something something Russian propaganda. archive
I hate both of these people and don't know who is telling the truth.
The Amber Heard Saga
This summer, for reasons that escape me, much of the Internet became obsessed with the personal problems of Amber Heard and Johnny Depp. Heard had already prevailed against Depp in a British court, but Americans wisely disregarded this as probably false because British. Public sentiment was strongly against Heard, on account of her coming across as a lying liar who lies. Nonetheless, a contingent of the leftist Twitterverse attributed the hatred for Heard not to Heard being as dislikeable as it is possible for a person to be and quite literally taking a shit on Depp's bed, but rather on misogyny. It was for this side that Bouzy would carry the banner. He was hired by Amber Heard's legal team. For them, he produced a second report akin to the one he had created for Meghan Markle: Targeted Trolling and Trend Manipulation: How Organized Attacks on Amber Heard and Other Women Thrive on Twitter
He was part of a Discovery+ documentary Johnny vs. Amber archive.
He certainly had a lot of widespread, fawning, and credulous media coverage:
Variety, Amber Heard Supporters Face Widespread Harassment archive
Jezebel: Youtubers are Profiting off of Anti-Amber Heard and Meghan Markle Content archive
Rolling Stone: “Are Johnny and Amber’s Stans for Real? archive
All this led up to the climax when Christopher Bouzy decided to deplatform anti-Heard Youtuber ThatUmbrellaGuy, claiming TUG made a bunch of money off of anti-Heard videos.
Inexplicably, Bouzy spun this tiff into a fight with all of LawTube, the mostly Rekieta-orbiting or Rekieta-launched commenters on legal matters on Youtube, all of whom were having bumper earnings due to public interest in the Heard/Depp saga.

The Nate the Lawyer Slap Fight
Bouzy quickly narrowed his focus from all of LawTube to a particular lawyer he found annoying: Nate Broughty, dba. "Nate the Lawyer." Nate is a former prosecutor, former cop, and later-in-life lawyer. He's a personal friend of Nick Rekieta's and a bunch of other Internet lolyers. He's a libertarian and he's blind in one eye, which I only mention because it kind of makes him look like an X-Man.
Bouzy decided to do some kind of defamation speed-run with Nate, claiming variously that Nate is not a lawyer:
Then he said that he actually knew all along that Nate had been using a pseudonym, but pretended otherwise because he wanted his followers, not him, to dox Nate.
He "grew up with black men like Broughty"
Matters came to a head when Bouzy found an old interview in which Nate describes knowing "tricks" that cops use to present evidence and cross examine suspects because Nate himself was once a cop. Bouzy used this to repeatedly accuse Nate of being a crooked cop.
Even Bouzy's followers pushed back on this one, but he was not to be deterred:
This is now the pinned post on Nate the Lawyer's Twitter archive
Of course, Nate is using this to raise money. Because the Internet.
He has hired Ron Coleman (Conservative Ben Shapiro-adjacent Jewish lawyer) and they have filed a complaint that is freely available (and also attached here).
