I have a foreign SIM card that has no tie to my name or address and I can top up with cash.

My calls to the local taxi and pizza companies will divert a huge amount of scrutiny.

You clearly haven't been topping it up ONLY with cash.

Anyway they will just use CCTV footage which loads of shops have as well as banks and random streets. They are only interested in CCTV footage if it's a "terrorist" or crime against the person.

Nope, the most they can get you on for coming here, is being a pdf file

Nope - people on here got big mouth to talk the talk but never walk the walk...


It's safer for the society to keep you lot on here though, I am sure admin is getting some tax kickback for keeping you all in one place - it's the only reason most people in General don't get banned

Or gay men anally fisting their husbands, women who ejaculate, or people who like to pee on one another.

Security is one thing (and I still don't think it can be morally justified) but when they've already proven that they can't be trusted to have access to our data without discriminating against certain demographics (e.g. the previously mentioned gays who are overrepresented), then this sounds absurd.

So glad in the 50 Shades film they ruled it out...

Can't believe people got excited when I googled about helping my uncle jack off a horse. By the time I'd been released, dear old Uncle Jack had fell off and broke his hip.

Does it matter that this was a made up scare story and that they have said they will NOT be looking at browser history?
