Listen guys, anybody who has had any experience with the US government/federal law enforcement agencies knows that it/they are pretty much one huge, stupid, clumsy, machine. You can do a lot of things and get away with them for a long, long time, and the federal law enforcement agencies won't even know or care, but once they decide to bust you, don't kid yourself, you're fucked. They have the funds and manpower to get you no matter what, and unless you leave the country real damn fast you will become acquainted with a federal pen.
So, stop being so damn petty with all this "who would post their picture?, the government can get you then!" And all the, "you must get a hotmail account to protect yourelf!" Listen, you have not been busted because the feds don't care about you (right now), if they decide they care about you, then your electronic paper trail will be like a yellow-brick road, and they will get you.
So, either stop whining, and believing you can evade the feds. Or stop visiting/posting to this type of site if you're really that paranoid.
And, yeah, the feds know about all those sources you guys are so busy protecting, but this doesn't mean they shold be posted, a source known by a select few and kept quiet about is pretty safe, but a source that is flaunted in front of the feds (remeber Buttplugs article that screwed us all) isn't likely to last.
Good Luck,
Mike
