Posting safe?

[bluntar]

I am wondering how safe it is for me in my situation to post threads, pix, video, or information about anything i may have a question about on here. my concern is the law. So far everything is going fine, i have gotten ALOT of usefull information form this website and honestly i dont know if i would have made it this far with out it. I am verry good at keeping secrets however im proud of what i have done and want some feed back. im just worried that i could get busted from putting pix and info on the net. I am behind a router so there is a fire wall and i will never post any personal info.

I'd say just use good judgement, and don't get too detailed with personal information regarding yourself.

I personally feel pretty confident in this board.:thumbsup:

Just take pics of individual plants..never the entire grow; be cool about saying numbers etc. and you are 100% safe.

Just don't be stupid. If you stay small there's no reason for anyone to go after you. If you're really paranoid use something like Hide My Ass! Free Proxy and Privacy Tools - Surf The Web Anonymously

Nothing is 100% safe. I worry about IP logging and a federal agency sniffing IPs as they log into the site. The fact that you are behind a firewall means nothing. Your outgoing IP address is determined by your ISP. They can trace that IP back to you if asked. It is definitely something that worries me and has kept me from posting images. I'm tempted but I just don't feel comfortable. That said, I am on here a lot giving and receiving advice. That in itself could be sufficient for unwanted attention.

Than all of you for the input, I never would have thoght not to post numbers and/or pics of the whole opperation.I am now wondering if thoes disclamer signatures ("all words posted by this author are works of fiction") are worth anything and also if anyone knows of any case of someone being investigated criminaly due to a social networking web site.

[bigsby]

Those signatures won't stop an investigation or prosecution. Of course to prosecute they would need hard evidence but if they could tie you to a grow log it might serve as supporting evidence. I see no point. Not sure about the other question. Would be good to know the answer to that...

Well so far everything is going well and i have made it to the 12/12 stage w/o posting any thing so i think i will just wait till everything is said and done to post pix and log info. cannabis.com has ben so helpfull i just feel that i should return the favor and provide information to pepole in my shoes. like how a scientist publishes his/her findings.

Man if ya look around as i think you have, no one has a field of plants growing. Most people have 3-4 plants just trying to learn and get a harvest. The gut behind the wall selling joints for 5 bucks should be the person who needs to worry. You dont put up your address and phone number, but a small pic of a few plants that shows the ground or blank wall is nothing. I believe if your this paranoid im not sure how you will finish, because we all get freaked now an then, but this site. Well any site. The are not out for the few plant guy, they should be out for dealers. There are to many of us and people really need to speak up anyway. There are more of us then known and thats just wrong.

Peace:rasta:
