That's why I prefer pirate/NSFW instances. This account isn't on that kind of instance, but my other accounts are. Pirate instances are preffered, since not many defederate from them because they're not NSFW. They tend to pick their server's locations very carefully, usually in countries that just don't give AF about western law and policy (they call it "offshore hosting", but in reality, they're countries like Russia or China), so it's really really hard to actually pressure them and even harder to get to the data. And even if they succseed, it'll be after years, at which point, the trace will be cold and probably not worth persuing anyway.

This is one of the methods tycoons use to launder money, by doing bank transfers to banks in countries that don't care about western policies and laws. And by doing a few back and forths, you're essentially delaying the whole thing. Hell, some of these guys died waiting to be put on trial, lol ๐Ÿ˜‚.

And it doesn't change the fact that only you, the other person and the wiretapper know about that conversation ever happening... well also whoever they might have shared that with as well, but that's still not public as in someone reading this comment. Everyone can read and confirm that this is what I wrote.

Yeah, I know, I was just trying to clarify and couldn't think of another term ๐Ÿคท.

The truth is, if you share something online, whether it be in a PM or publicly, it can never ever be considered private. However, a PM's content is harder to get to than reading this comment for example, that was my point.

Agreed.

But, I've lived in buildings my entired life and maybe I've gotten numb to these things... I mean, I hear them all the time, but it really doesn't bother me, I just ignore it. Hell, I even lived in a separate room shared household for about a year. I could litelarly hear everyone's converstaions... never bothered me, it was just noise.

I think I was clear, private as in not public. As in it's not public domain.

Completely agree ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘. Tastes like shit.

Good one ๐Ÿคฃ.

Still, the conversation is private, as in not public. Even if it is surrendered to the authorities, the'll probably never be released publicly (unless leaked).

Unless you divide China in 40, 50 states, you can't. There's just too many of them. Plus they used to have a 10 kids per family tradition, so... that's how you get to a few billion people and an endelss supply of workers.

And now people don't even understand me, like I wrote "I'll PM you" and they said "What ๐Ÿคจ" ๐Ÿคฆ.

Guess I'll have to shift from using PM to DM... though it seems completely illogical to me, but hey, that's life I guess.
