Paranoid About Posting On This Website

Discussion in 'General' started by Elduderino598, Aug 31, 2014.

  1. Anyone ever get paranoid about posting anything on this site or even being on it for that matter. I mean for most of you weed is illegal. (Not me I have a card its all legal) Do any of you know of anyone who has had internet search history monitered or anything like that and gotten in trouble? Or anyone who has gotten in trouble and has things they posted on this website used against them?

     
  2. I get on here at work during my spare time. Too many fucking people on here for them to care about specifics. Unless that person was also a known criminal by law, whether it be drug related or not, I'd doubt they'd waste their time on pot heads.

    All of that coming from a guy who is pretty sure the government is going to be fucking us in the ass here in the next few years. Er, it already is, but they don't have the courtesy to go public about it all yet. Until then, let the subtleties wash over you. Semen stains the mountaintops.

  3. I have never had a problem posting on this site. If you are that paranoid you could always use proxy's to hide your IP address. One time though when i got FUCKING baked out of my mind i was kinda thinking the same thing and got paranoid and signed off haha. 
     
  4. Yup, I've been arrested 17 times by the DEA -  every time because they saw me posting on this website. The feds have your address, guaranteed :)

    It's all just one big conspiracy
     
  6. You'd have to be posting about a massive grow op to catch any shit. Sure goverment officials probably roam this board every once in awhile, but its to catch someone slipping through too much info about their commercial, or even a high plant count medium sized growthats when you're fucking up.
     
    The time and money it would take to bust one person for their grow, driving while high(if you admit to it here, I do lol) and such its just not worth it for them. You'd have more to worry about your power bill bouncing around, and with voltage's going at regular 12 hour intervals.. Sure you can have a computer with a 1500watt power supply, but is that being turned on at 9pm and going off at 9am on a regular? Possibly, but HIGHLY unlikely.
     
  7. I doubt they're going to bust me for my smoking habbits. Hopefully medical becomes legal in my state come November.
     
    The one thing I wouldn't post on here is a grow unless it was legal.
     
  8. If you don't feel safe posting on this website then don't. There are precautions you can take when posting pictures.
     
    First and foremost is make sure your GPS setting is turned OFF if you are taking pictures with an iphone. When GPS is enabled, it attaches a geotag to the picture file which tells exactly where it was taken. 
     
    Second (common sense) - Don't post grow pictures with your face in them.
     
    If your search history is monitored, you must be using someone elses computer or network. I don't think anyone has ever checked my search history before.
     
  9. i feel perfectly safe. only thing i do is erase exif data on the photos i upload that's it.
     
  10. I have no issues posting on these kinds of forums or social networking sites at all, I'm just a little worried about uploading photo/videos. 
    Photos and videos have data tagged to them by a smart phone/tablet. (Can't remember name of  data) This data stores information such as date of photo along with location and time taken. All the authorities have to do is right click save and then use a program to open up the data and, bingo, they have your grow ops location. 
     
  11. Silly me I should of used my eyes properly didn't see the previous post... 
     
     
    Exif data, that's what it's called! Thank you, I've been trying to remember it's name. What is the process for removing Exif data? Is it to just make sure that the smart phones/device's GPS is switched off or is there more to it than that?? 
     
    Thanks again! 
     
  12. meta-data
     
  13. Okay thanks, is there a way to remove the meta-data?

    Idk but acting suspicious and such would arouse their D...tective senses.

    If youre paranoid that is. Id think itd be silly not to be tho. In a world full of crooks, the only crime is being stupid enough to get caught. Im sure theres more pressing issues though....

  16. I've seen dudes post growing pics on here for years, and they're not in 'legal' states, myself included. Nothing but smooth sailing. 
     
    Your paranoia is completely unfounded, esp if you're just a pedestrian smoker  :smoking:
     
  17. I don't think anything will happen but tbh I probably wouldn't post grow pics if I was illegal.
     
  18. Posting on here wont make detectives come to your door....

    HOWEVER... if and only IF you ever get caught, your account might be used against you as evidence if they go through your pc. Its hard for them to really use shit like this though because there is no way to tell if youre being honest or just spitting out lies to look cool.

    like me for instance... everything i've posted here is bullshit *cough cough*

    If you're asking for on a phone, I don't know. But on my PC I just use IrfanView.
