Sharing information on social media is common for many people nowadays, but it’s not always without consequence. In some cases, simple ‘likes’ can be used as evidence in court, as a Florida man recently discovered. His Star Wars and Minion ‘likes’ were presented as evidence to support allegations he may be a prolific BitTorrent pirate.

You should assume that dbzer0 will eventually get a legal request to turn over records.

        Here’s mine, (right now anyway, doesn’t stay the same for long) 185.220.101.21, come show up to… some datacenter in Germany…

        Also I’m not sure if dbzer0 saves those persistently or clears them out often. If they do clear them then it probably doesn’t matter much.
