I'm no lawyer but is it admissible? I doubt it.
[QUOTE=GentleSun;6577211]LE could use our explicit words (your's) as online evidence to support their case against a provider or group of providers they're investigating and charging?
[/QUOTE]Is hearsay admissible in court. Fuck no.
In order for anything we post here to be used as evidence in a court, they would have to tie specific comments to individuals, and then cross reference that to other evidence.
So tying a specific IP address to a specific individual and then proving that. Yeah, the amount of time and money that would need to be spent, the po po will use other means (code enforcement) to shut a place down. Will they read here, sure, will they use it to prosecute, I doubt it Will they learn of a new place here with or without the stupid notations. Perhaps.
I won't say It couldn't happen, but the likelihood is slim to none.
I say posting vaguely is just braggadocios behavior that does nothing than inflate the poster's ego.
No real value.
