Will the Biden administration overhaul US cannabis policy?

The internet is anything but anonymous, that idea is very much a myth.

It is extremely hard to be anonymous on the internet don't imagine that VPN's make you anonymous they don't, even TOR can be defeated, almost every ISP records IP Address history now, and your ISP knows exactly what websites you visit outside a VPN and knows precisely every time you use a VPN.

I use encrypted services to provide completely private backup of my software and email, these are non crackable zero knowledge services, they can also be used for communications through secure email but none of that hides the endpoints, none of that hides the fact that computer A talked to computer B, yes it is difficult to work out and require the cooperation of the ISPs, TOR attempts to obscure the endpoints but it is still not compeletly secure.

Programs like TOR are valuable they can allow news to get out from countries with repressive regimes like Russia and China, TOR is vital for whistleblowers and whistleblowers particularly in western democracies are essential now to a functioning democracy, but at the end of the day the internet provides anything but anonimity.

Mike this is a site for adults, we should not be afraid of some profanity, I don't like it being used excessively in posting even though I deliberately use profantity myself sometimes in posts but links are another matter this is the common vernacular in this country and even for our Filipino members they should get to see and understand what Brits are really like.

I'm watching the video you deleted, about half way just now.

I knew people like this guy around 1974-to-77 and some of them probably went on the same path, I lost track of most by 1979.

This Howard Marks chap sounds remarkably sensible and honest.

I've known much worse Scottish criminals at least on the surface, I am glad I was always on the outskirts and never got close or involved with them, there was one Scottish guy who worked in my mum's electric department (House of Frazer 1974) she was the manageress and she thought he was great but he was a monster, I can't even bring myself to type his first name as there is enough info here for him to identify me, he bragged to me in later years about shotgun murders he was part of, do I believe him, no I think he was full of crap but it distrubs me to this day, my mum would have been horrified if she knew the truth behind him.

Drugs were probably part of his career but I knew a lot more who definitely were in the drugs trade, I am glad that I have been well away from those kinds of people for at least 37 years or more.

Well none of the people I knew were actually that sensible or honest, some were idealogues some just rogues most of those I knew were close to the end of the supply chain as I said I am glad that is all history now.

Never heard of him, Silk Road didn't last very long even though it was running hidden under TOR.
