    I’d have to read the source, but what was the original action that prompted the FBI to ask for all these records? Just looking at this GETTR garbo site, it looks like profiles more/less could be public (as in i can look at accounts without an account), but they also say there they looked at his google map account.

    This does feel a little 1st amendment breaking to me though. Maybe they considered the 4k comments so spammy it constituted an attempt to manipulate the forum? I can see the argument in the content, but what argument do they even have to consider it noteworthy. I suppose this is why most websites just ban toxic content like me, so they don’t have the feds on their door. Jesus.

      Quick 11-page read here if you wanna try to answer your own question so you can check if I’m off base:

      1. Write law you can’t threaten [vice] president

      1. Find threats against VP

      1. Ask host for records, examine records, ask host (Google) of connected account for records

      2. Jail

      1A is sacrosanct but the moron went too far.

      Jokes (one & two) are dandy though :) Two is funnier while one is more extreme.

        I wasn’t trying to JAQ off or anything, I’m just terminally toxic.

          IDK who downvoted ya, and wish I’d rephrased:

          if you wanna try to answer your own question

          Cuz I meant that with, say, a collaborative exploration kinda vibe but it reads more like a dig or something.

          :)
