Decided to TL;DR it..
Edward Snowden is a whistleblower that is not exiled in Russia.
Ross Ulbricht is the founder of the first well-known darknet market Silk Road.
Julian Assange is one of the founders of Wikileaks, a whistleblower site.
Roman Semyonov, Alexey Pertsev and Roman Storm seems to be related to cryptocurrency laundering. Hadn't heard of them.
I'd add:
Chelsea Manning, another whistleblower.
Aaron Swartz was accused of sharing MIT's academic articles and committed suicide.
