So, being paranoid, knowing that there's no SSL and you CAN be tracked, and apparently following the Snowden case carefully from it's start, you joined a pot growing forum?
Either you aren't paranoid, or you aren't... Well something that rhymes with hairy fart.
More amusing to me is the notion of him thinking using a fake name on the internet is going to somehow keep him safe. The snowden thing has rather shown that they can happily hack and bug the biggest corporations in the world, world leaders, intercept hardware during shipment to install data collection devices etc, and this guy thinks using a fake name is going to throw them off the scent. They can hack the german chancellors phone if it pleases them, without the entire german security services being able to detect or stop it, yet you think you can outplay them via a false name
Given this thread, why would anyone act surprised by such stupidity
If you followed and understood the Snowden incidents, you'd surely know that as (less than intelligent) average joe, so long as you're on the internet you can't do shit about owt.
