Very good points CCIE. That's what I worry about as well. But then I think about the fact I am in BC and realize that cops have bigger grow-ops to worry about than a guy with 3 plants in his closet.

Besides, I was caught with an ounce of bud by narcs here (fuck Tim Horton's!) and the cops didn't even ask my name. They just wanted the bud. I was so choked that I basically got robbed of my pot by the cops, but at the same time it could've been worse if I were booked for PPT. If we didn't have this retarded war on drugs here in North America those sad excuses for protectors couldn't have stolen my weed.

Now threads like that 3LBS per plant 18 kW grow, that might be something the cops would try and investigate. In the US there are busts from info on myspace, when stupid kids think it'll be funny to show the world their crimes attached to their name & face. I'm pretty sure that any information on this public forum is fair game for them to use to get a warrant. Luckily the only place our IPs are logged is in the apache log file. I would just expect the admins of a site like this to handle that sort of data carefully. There's probably little in the logs connecting IPs to user accounts anyway, unless POST data is logged.

In short, unless you're really open about lots of personal details you will probably be safe. The internet is quite anonymous and the volume of traffic on it is just too great to be monitored in entirety.
