Ron, how did you determine who you sold Cannabis.com to? You sold to the highest bidder right? What assurance do we have that these people aren't working for a government?

It wouldn't be illegal for LEO to buy this website off of you and bust people.

thanks for planting the seed to this FUCKING TREE!

That makes no sense that if LEO bought the site then the new owners would ban all sales,mom,dealing,hook-ups etc...what would be the use? Whats happening on the boards now is not illegal so why would LEO want the site with changes being enforced that eliminate their job..doesn't add up.

Questioning whether or not LEO purchased this site IS a valid concern. You cannot dispute that fact.

Reasons why LEO would benefit from purchasing this site:
1) They can log IP addresses without any need for warrants or the like.
2) They will know the user name and passwords of everyone here, which the owners/administrators can then use to hack people's email accounts (gmail, msn), blogs (MySpace, Friendster), etc. on other websites if the user uses the same password/username.
3) Also, by knowing everyone's email as an owner/admin, they may be able to glean more evidence about the user's identity. E.g., if the user's contact email is [email protected], LEO has one more thing to point to which verifies the user's identity.
4) They can read the PM's of paying members, which may contain information on illegal activities that they would want to investigate.
5) They gain revenue to fund their bogus WOD.
6) They can censor/ban posters who have something to say on this site which exposes LEO's activities.
7) By owning the site, it would sure clear up any legal ambiguities about how LEO should have been allowed to capture information on this website to use in an investigation of the posters.
8) By identifying the posters on this site with information the LEO owners gained through owning Cannabis.com, LEo could use the information to establish contact with posters through other means. Examples would be, initiating contact with the poster via undercover agent in person, chat rooms, etc.
9) with the use of relatively little manpower, LEO can monitor the activities of thousands of people and gain information on their indentities, residence, activities, and evidence of illegal activities.

I can do most anything I want within reason..including disputing that LEO bought this site..this board doesn't participate in illegal activities anyway so there should be no concern..believe what you want though..all this time and you just now getting to reply to my pp?:thumbsup:

Okay krusty..now I understand your concern..your OG refugee..but seeing that you are..wouldn't that prove to you that they are not after everyone?? I mean you are here posting..even after they got OG?

I have no concern, but, that's a very interesting idea.

Imagine if the World came to that. A World where, even, cops are participating, moderating, and buying Pot! I mean, Pot-sites.

I am the Skink,impervious to LEO...

Feed the fire guys. FEED IT!

Take it easy, Ron! Go put your feet up and roll a fat one! Thanks man! ;)

i think the mongoose bought cannabis .com
