Binary shadow, are you a computer programmer or something of the sort for your job if you don't mind me asking?
Nope, but I have been heavily involved with computers as a hobby for most of my life.got on the internet back when you had to dial the service you were trying to reach, and have worked extensively with computers as one of my main past times.
Also I just want to note that *NOTHING* I have talked about on hipforums (sans the secure forum blueprint I posted which did take around a year of research) regarding computers / computer security is particularly difficult to do. The difficulty revolves around making encryption algorithms and software programming. Actually using the individual programs is fairly trivial, people just convince themselves that they are not smart enough to do it when in reality even a ten year old could do everything I have talked about here.
i didn't read the whole thread, and i was going to show you this (cuz it was funny, but now serious) but i forgot about it notice anything familiar?
^^^ Haha That pretty much sums up why I don't post pictures on here, although you could find pictures of me relatively easily if you tried.
"its just now the cops in your area are gonna know more about RC's" This just about sums it up. The cops aren't going to confiscate your computer unless you were politically active (then they'd jump on that shit). However, if you're mad paranoid I suggest you use truecrypt.
maybe you shouldnt have a picture of yourself on an internet account which talks about nothing but using drugs and selling drugs, cmon really now, thats just askin for it.
Password protect your computer if you have not already done so. Reason being that recent rulings indicate that a password on a computer is just like a lock on a room door. The police can not force access with out a warrant.
I think you have nothing to worry about and your being overly paranoid but then again being paranoid is what often saves people
That sucks. It seems like the principal was pretty nice in a way...telling you to clear the house and stuff. I'm surprised he and the parents weren't more freaked out by the strange chemical names and stuff. If I were you, I'd remove all pictures of yourself....assuming that's you with the hooka in your signature....although it almost looks like you are playing a clarinet....
The best part about truecrypt is that, if you use the right options (encrypted volume with a hidden volume), there's no way to even TELL it's a truecrypt volume. At all. Just shows up as an unformatted drive in any operating system.
