I'm sure. But it's an absurdly self-flattering and grandiose name. He's not a dissident. He's helping people copy inexpensive apps, that are in no way necessities, that generally cost less than a can of Red Bull, and are mostly from small independent developers.
A more appropriate pseudonym would be Veruca Salt. At least that would capture the pettiness and sense of entitlement.
