Behaving in all interactions, public and private, as if a Police Panopticon is watching you.

It well May Be! Facebook is not your Friend, absolutely. I do agree that personal conversations are better had Face to Face.

But blaming oneself, or victims of the Digital Panopticon, for their ineptitude, is very disheartening.

Of -course- they could have had better opsec. But for another Example, of -course- any Suicide victim could have also chosen to "do better" instead. Equally insensitive advice, even if it is true.

Fair enough, I think what I said was a bit haughty in retrospect.

However, this is a very serious matter. If found guilty, this person will have a criminal record.

Doing something illegal in the United States is very dangerous, and you should be very careful, as there are lots of known and unknown channels which you can unknowingly get yourself caught.
