Sharing information on social media is common for many people nowadays, but it’s not always without consequence. In some cases, simple ‘likes’ can be used as evidence in court, as a Florida man recently discovered. His Star Wars and Minion ‘likes’ were presented as evidence to support allegations he may be a prolific BitTorrent pirate.
You should assume that dbzer0 will eventually get a legal request to turn over records.
We all know where the real injustices are.
I can’t imagine the shame I’d feel if there was a legal finding stating that I was a fan of the minions.
And that’s why I love Linux isos!
That shit is 🔥
I download “Big buck bunny” every year
Yea, half the guys in CECOT in El Salvador are torrenters, didn’t you know?
Some of them are also undergoing DHMO deprivation.

What request? The record are public.
ip addresses of individual users aren’t public and are collected by their home server.
I’m going to jail then lol
They don’t jail you, they take every penny you’ve ever had or will have for the rest of your life.
It’s only fair, you becoming destitute for liking a post is far better than the risk that they didn’t get their $24.95 from you. /s
Might be worth paying for a VPN to avoid this.
Vpn is a bare minimum, got to threat your ISP as threat actor from the start.
ZK services is the future
That’s absolutely insane.
Id upboat this but that might be used as evidence as libel. lol
You commented which is worse. It’s futile to hide, the popo is on their way.
Preemptively denying dismissal of their future case, trial will continue when the request for dismissal arises.
To quote the great Suzy Eddie Izzard: I was dead at the time!
Just another day in Florida.

That judge can fuck off ⬆️
Turn over records? Is this not all public already?
It is. In the fediverse everything is open otherwise federation wouldn’t work.

I assume then that dbzer0 USA owned/operated?
The admin team is distributed and the infra is in europe iirc.
So nosh.itjust.works
is Canadian, just FYI. You may already know that, but for those who don’t…
What if we “comply” and give them their damn records if they come demanding them.
Gigabytes of data that is just red herrings and stuff that doesn’t lead anywhere but still has to be checked. And in formatted in such way it has to be done manually and can’t be automated without even bigger effort and cost. If you give it to ai it will just start spouting nonesense or preferrably accusing obviously wrong people. It is likely not possible to make something like that, but it would be great if it was.
It’s not very difficult to parse through database data for specific usernames and comments/upvotes related to that.
A determined judge would just make you pay for the time it takes to do so.
“Florida Man” - checks out.
