    One day there will be a worm that goes around the internet and will be able to link each comment and/or post to the actual physical person that made them. A global database will be created where anyone can look up an individual person and see everything they’ve posted on the internet, even if it was behind an anonymous username.

      I don’t doubt that. And I do fear it. I thrive in anonymity and although I never do anything wrong, but I just feel more freedom with anonymity, you know what I mean? That’s why I try so hard to not affiliate all my new usernames with Google, but it’s all tied together because even if you try to separate Google from anything, they still find a way to get in there.

        You can’t hide secrets from the future, with math you can try, but I bet in the future they laugh at the half assed schemes and algorithm you amassed to enhance your cryptographs from the past

    Not in the slightest. I don’t care if they know my darkest kinks. That’s life. Everyone has something out of the ordinary that appeals to them. I owe no one any explanation for it. Nothing I enjoy is illegal so let them see.

      It honestly baffles me that so many people feel so ashamed of liking porn when they logically know that nearly everyone else likes it too.

        honestly if the people I know in daily life knew some of the porn I’ve, um, enjoyed, they would never look at me the same way again, I would have an identity/existential crisis, have to leave town and start all over again rebuilding new relationships with all new acquaintances

          That’s weird of them… you know they like the same porn, right? Masturbation is a private activity so the porn you watch is your business alone - unless it’s made without consent (including cp and beast because they’re unable to consent).

            Porn is unhealthy, it warps the human mind by interfering with the way our brains are wired to form and maintain human relationships. Anyone who still loves looking at porn and won’t admit that it is a sad pathetic tragic replacement for human relationships, may be already too far gone.

              Ooooh, so you made this question as a bait because you’re a judgemental asshole. Porn is fine for most people, if it isn’t for you then feel free to abstain - but fuck off with your puritanical bullshit.

              Thats someones interpretation, certainly not yours either. You could say that anything you do “interferes” with something you would otherwise do. Ate a store-bought sandwich? That “interefered” with the way your brain is wired to hunt the food yourself.

    To be honest law enforcement (at least in the IT department of things) would be pretty used to anything at this point so why feel embarrassed?

    You’ll probably be added to a tally on the wall listed with examples such as: ‘How to blow your own dick?’ or ‘Another Bronie.’ or ‘Wiki rabbit hole addict.’

    Its all just weird physics and RF stuff, all they would find out is that I am a giant nerd. Some examples: common base colpitts oscillator, inductance calculator, temerature PIN detector FWHM.

    My recorded search history is so boring. If I have to search for anything sketchy or where I wouldn’t want to be inundated with ads related to the search, I do it incognito so the search isn’t stored.

      Your recorded history may not be stored locally. Would be shocking if Google didn’t have some way of de-anonymizing searches.

    Dear police officers: I’m sure you’re excited to begin your journey learning all about electronic engineering and product design!

    If you have any questions, drop by any time and I’ll be happy to help. I hope you find these hobbies as rewarding as I do.

      It doesn’t make things hidden from the authorities. Computer forensics can get in there and they know everything we do online. Nothing is hidden.

          yeah that’s what my words said but my mind was thinking more in terms of everything your ISP provider knows, everything the FBI can figure out…
