I attributed this to my age and being a lawyer, but maybe Mrs. Wilson just didn't raise any fools.<br /><br />"Girls Around You." OMFG This is just encouraging stalker behavior. <br /><br />Pakkingpappa --"you can always claim you picked it up from the recycle bin. Unless that is crime in People's Soviet of Massachusetts." <br />Well, in the People's Soviet of California they have laws against scavenging, which includes picking stuff out of the recycle bin, so I can only assume the PSoM has a similar law, which they would be only too happy to enforce against someone who put holes in cardboard in a socially unacceptable manner.Windy Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01951254236693386401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-16533513432316392072012-06-19T11:46:18.196-04:002012-06-19T11:46:18.196-04:00Reminds me of a new 'pinterest' style webs...Reminds me of a new 'pinterest' style website for firearms enthusiasts. Of course their T&C admonish you to honestly provide information, which includes full name and hometown. Which it then attaches to each of your posts. So I tested this on a couple of older guys who are competitive shooters (so I figure have lots of nice stuff) and found their addresses and phone numbers in about 2 minutes.<br /><br />The owners (who claim to be law enforcement) didn't seem to see a problem with this, but did agree to let me list my location as Timbuktu without getting kicked off.cjnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-1291348113523544932012-06-19T11:43:41.888-04:002012-06-19T11:43:41.888-04:00Trent,

Among them:<br />1. It's pretty new.<br />2. How would you know?<br />3. There are plenty of instances of criminals using everything from Craigslist to bogus FB profiles to facilitate crimes of the sex kind as well as plain ol' theft and swindling and whatnot.
