In the mean time, use Tor.
Also:
Q: The last column, the user agent string, does that show which browser, operating system, and other information that this particular user and that date and time had on their computer.
A: Yes.
No. It shows what advisory string their user-agent chose to tell the web server. Please tell me that something like this is not evidence in the government's case.
And let's not forget that IP address evidence assumes, probably among other things, 1) No Tor 2) No Proxy (chains) 3) No one else under the same NAT umbrella 4) No ISP address allocation weirdness.
It did inspire me to watch anime with mangoes, though.
Much more interesting is that he didn't provide the IP address... but the FBI requested activity logs for that particular IP. Wonder how they got to know it?
Not a big 4chan fan myself but the idea of website owners dealing with such questionable/taboo content in a court of law is quite interesting.
it's also interesting to note that 4chan is pretty questionably legal and it's interesting to see how it is addressed in court, e.g. it's really clear you need to have a prominent rule page!
But still kinda cool - as someone else said the culture is so vastly different. Wanting a definition of "who" Rick Astley is cracked me up, even if only "for the record."
But nonetheless, what gets me the most is, in fact, how vastly indecipherable some of this must be to the jury, regardless of explanations. And the explanations themselves might possibly require many minutes / hours of defining to accurately represent the case.
Makes me wonder what they do about really complex technological cases.
I don't think that's what Moot said. The more worrying one is where he's asked to explain what the significance of '.jpg' is.
