In late 2007 I heard a radio interview with local police officers about myspace. Part of that interview was played on TV (see Cops Use Myspace), but they omitted the juiciest parts. The cops said they use facial recognition software in conjunction with a huge data base that is managed by the NSA. If there's one illegal or suspect photo or phrase on your myspace then they open can investigation on you (and your friends list too). If you have a picture of a pot leaf, a gun or anything to give them probable cause they open an investigation on you, or issue a search warrant. There's also a judge working full time with myspace in California just to issue warrants. My guess is they save all photos in a database for cross reference to prove your identity when it comes time to seek out an arrest warrant.

Anyways, I decided to join myspace and what I saw shocked me. People were posting sexually revealing photo's of themselves. Pictures of themselves doing drugs or pictures of their friends doing drugs. People were posting threatening letters. And what shocked me the most was how much personal information people would reveal about themselves. Like, where the were going for vacation and when they were leaving. Or, posting their class schedule. I actually saw people who had posted their emails, phones numbers and addresses.

So, I started this YouTube to try and make people aware that once you post something online it may never go away. A picture of you and your friend toking-up a blunt could stay with you for the rest of your life. Your online footprint is in a Federal database, there is no more privacy. They're called profiles for a reason. Some people tell my I'm full of it. To them, I just have this to say: Why wouldn't they?
