Don't post pictures of your shit on the 'net. I usually give some half-ass excuse when people occasionally ask me for pics on the web (like I still use film, which is true), but the real reason is that anything and everything you post on the web is there, forever, and I really don't like that.

Out of boredom and curiosity I've searched myself and found posts I made 15 years ago on places and about subjects I had totally forgotten about. I found a discussion I had with some Norwegian guy on a listgroup I thought was long dead. For years I couldn't even find mention of the group, then a couple years ago, up it popped in some university server cache.

Nobody is anonymous on the 'net, it's best to remember that. There is simply no such thing as running silent. You can minimize exposure though, and it is wise to do that.





I'm sure everyone here is savvy enough to know all of this anyway.
