  1. Did you make it through the whole BuzzFeed article? I know with all the tips it's probably an unwieldy task to read everything.

    I can't say why, but something about the tipster didn't set right with me. I don't know exactly what. He didn't seem genuine. At the bottom of the post, we learn he's a good little authoritarian.

    “I used to think the First Amendment applied entirely to the internet," he said. "And now, I realize that the First Amendment is about the government putting you in a cage or killing you for what you say."

    I have no idea what he's trying to say there. This next quote, however, is quite explicit.

    "I think these websites should be more heavily regulated," he added. "There should be a real-time way for the government to get your information."
