I think that’s a little different though, Epstein had blackmail material on basically everyone in power, he was basically legally untouchable, he had mutually assured pedophillic destruction. That’s why they had to assassinate him.
Your broader point is correct though of course, no argument there.
I knew a guy in the Police who said that Facebook was a gift because people are dumb.
One guy posted publicly a photo with a couple kg of weed and flashing a pistol acting like a badman. The local police account commented under the post saying they’d like a word, guy responded “what you gonna do, arrest me?”, I think you can work out what happened next.
One thing I’ve learned from parenting a teen is that if you suspect your child is doing something really stupid, there is a very good chance that there is photo or video evidence of it.
Lot of kids out there under age drinking and taking videos of their shenanigans. Dumbasses.
Big banks probably have a more automated system but in small banks, there’s a good chance someone at the OPS center is literally scrolling through all the online transfers on a given day. Mostly to screen for potential fraud but I’m sure stuff like this raises a few eyebrows.
Just do it like the US govt and use code words; $435 for a hammer, $600 for a toilet seat, and $7000 for a coffee maker (1980’s dollars adjusted for inflation $1315, $1814, and $21159 respectively). How else would we keep secret projects “off” the books?
Once I sent a payment to a friend with a note like “drugs and guns” as a joke and it was delayed for like, two days.
Who tf is out there with zero opsec just using the banking system and straight up putting illegal stuff in the note field? So stupid.
Matt Gaetz literally used his public venmo to pay underage prostitutes.
People are fucking stupid.
Epstein used fucking Gmail.
Think of the average dumbest use case and realize there’s someone dumber still.
When you’re in the untouchables it doesn’t matter.
I mean, there’s a buffet of conspiracies around what happened to Epstein, but most would agree he was in jail for his crimes.
Oh yeah, that famous Florida plea bargain. How many years did it take and what surrounding circumstances finally affected his arrest? 🤓

Mate you’d be surprised.

Their brains aren’t fully developed. What do you expect?
Now, adults on the other hand…

Oi! Some of us like to keep track of our expenses, it’s a good budgeting practice.
Just do it like the US govt and use code words; $435 for a hammer, $600 for a toilet seat, and $7000 for a coffee maker (1980’s dollars adjusted for inflation $1315, $1814, and $21159 respectively). How else would we keep secret projects “off” the books?
Suddenly you’ve put this news in a whole other perspective for me:

I knew a kid in college who got drugs delivered straight to the dorm mailroom, so people can really be surprisingly brazen…
