Re: [FairfieldLife] Message for Jim at the Peak
When someone calls the cops in order to win an internet religious debate, you can assume he was losing very badly. That should be a sign to all FFL newcomers not to post any jokes about Barry - he apparently takes this forum very seriously, Steve.

This has got to be one of the strangest messages I've ever read on social media! ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb@... wrote : That was interesting about him having access to inside knowledge that it was not me. You would really have to check with Alex about that to be sure, but from what I have been told by Internet Buddies who run Yahoo forums, *they* have been able to track anyone who registered with their forum, whether they registered with a real email ID or a no_reply id.

On that walk, I ran into my Dutch cop neighbor and he asked me to update him on the complaint I'd filed with him some time ago. I did, saying that nothing much was happening and that Jimbo seems to have dropped the slander. But then, your post still fresh in my mind, I asked whether he and his EU cyberbuddies could tell me who cardozy was, since they were monitoring Jim's internet activity both on FFL and The_Leak because of my complaint. His reply -- tossed over his shoulder to me as I was walking my dog away and he was watering the garden -- was Yes, I could. But I can't, because he was not one of the people whose activities we were asked to monitor. Good answer. :-) Or perhaps a superficial acquaintance with the Internet lead him to draw conclusions about similar IP addresses. I don't know how it works at the moderator end.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Message for Jim at the Peak
In a religious debate if you feel compelled to call in the police, you pretty much lost the argument, Barry. Now the whole group is apparently being being monitored by Anonymous.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Message for Jim at the Peak
So, not only do the Anonymous and Interpol Police know all of your IP addresses, your real names and where you live on Google Earth, they can probably track your every move using GPS in real time. They know every FFL keystroke you make on your laptop computer; every call you make on your smartphone. Every online purchase you make, or don't make. All the members of FFL will probably be flagged by the NSA, FBI and the CIA, since they all share data a center in D.C. and at the Hague. Gawd! And, you thought using a silly alias would help you hide your identity? Go figure. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb@... wrote : In the world of white hat hackers, I saw your post before walking my dog (still hanging in there, thank you) around the block.
