   @RustyCrab @Vaghrad @cassidyclown @creamqueen @mint If this post sounds like I missed something, it's because rustc ate all of the RAM and angered Firefox and I'm typing from memory because Rust has the dumbest goddamn compiler and it shits crates into your home directory because it apparently hates when builds are self-contained because it is an idiot and I'm going to go throttle the team behind librsvg.

   That's more plausible.

   You keep saying that like it's more effort to email someone in Australia than it is to email someone locally.

   I don't know the extent of your friend's involvement, but even local cops don't call if they have a problem with something you're doing, they just come find you. I've never seen them call to threaten someone, and I've never even *heard* of the Secret Service doing that.
   
   But that's not the big deal. The point at which I said there's no chance they were the Secret Service was the weird internet-style threat. They don't just call and threaten you with various and sundry, not if they want to keep *their* jobs. If they're going to make a threat, it's not "We'll call your job and tell them you're being racist on the internet!", it's about maximum sentences and how, unlike states, federal sentences don't come with early parole. "We're gonna call your boss!" is something people say (or do) when they are mad at someone on the internet, the type of threat made by people that don't have the authority to get you arrested, and it's basically calculated to play directly into that specific worry. If a cop threatens to beat you up and steal your meth, is that guy probably an actual cop or a meth addict? (Hint: the real cop will just steal your meth and pretend he didn't see it.)
