Anonymity Is Conditional

I am so surprised when these people on social media apparently think they're totally anonymous when they've made no attempt to secure that status for themselves.

When you are using snapchat or any of the other myriad social media platforms there for your disposal you should always remember:

Caveat Emptor: let the buyer beware.

There are logs with which to contend that may be associated with your access credentials and correlated to both previous log ins as well as cross platform forensic information available to the law which may well decide that you may be interpolated and triangulated via those mechanisms by which you choose to access most any site in the world.

Now there may be exceptions in the darknet and peer to peer configurations such as tor (which I block from my networks) but there are even holes in those modalities as evidenced by your need to start from somewhere and end at that same place.

So as appeared in the local news hereabouts; when you're a school teacher (Collin County, Texas or anywhere else for that matter) thinking you're going to indulge illegal carnal relations with a 16 year old mouthy boy child student of yours ... THINK TWICE.

You are stupid to indulge the priorites of a teenager of the male persuasion ignorant of those inherent motivations which will be your downfall.

High school Harrys in particular have to tell all they know and will brag until you're outed then feign the "high road" and ... well, you can pretty much guess the rest of the braggadoio laden story.

Yet another story of wasted youth hitting up on an even younger idiot.
