Are you serious, or being a pitiful basement troll?
Action is not illegal → Service provider has unprivateable data on action → Action becomes illegal → You now have confessed to your crime
Can't make it much more obvious
I thought ex post facto laws were forbidden.
People won't all stop doing something they did just because it became illegal. I wouldn't stop eating bread if it became illegal, for instance. Much easier to justify a search and witch hunt if there's evidence of previous action.
Are you being serious, or just being a pitiful basement troll yourself?
You're saying because they did thing A it means you should be wary because thing Z might happen, even though things A and Z have literally nothing to do with each other nor does A happening give any likelihood of Z happening.
Got it, you're a pitiful troll. I don't care that your time is worthless, stop wasting mine.
