This^^, I’ve seen thousands of cases in federal court in the US. It’s amazing how many people think talking in code through text will make it so they don’t get into trouble. On the contrary, they are knowingly committing a crime and the evidence usually proves it. “Deniability” of leaving your computer open so that anybody can download something is within this realm of absurd. Government isn’t that stupid.
- thegeomaster 5y agoYeah, this happens a lot with programmers who see law as some kind of program which is supposed to perfectly determine what's a crime and what isn't. Then they come up with all kinds of "workarounds" where you're not violating the letter of the law directly. Like, no buddy, a judge will take one look at that and send you to the clink.
