You're not worried about said threat?

No, because the SWAT team here consists of two cops with pistols and my ISP are too incompetent to even get socialed.

I do nothing. There are like 5 doxes already out there on me, and 95% of the internet can't hack, and I don't bother going to places that have people that actually can. If someone sends me pizza I just won't pay, simple as that. If I get swatted it won't matter. Ooooo, scary cops going through my stuff for 3 hours. I don't do shit illegal and I have nothing to hide. So really, online badass wanna-bes don't really scare me. And if I am playing a game and a kid threatens to hit me offline, I take out his internet for an hour and walk away.

What about CC and SSN's being stolen?

True, I heard sometimes you end up getting the free pizza.

I don't have a CC, and I'm sure you could have a whole lot of fun with the SS of someone who has a credit score of literally zero.

It's a good idea to just not use credit cards anyways. I don't plan on using them.

If they're serious, on the internet and in real life, I do everything I can to wreck their life. Most people stupid enough to threaten someone else do so because they themselves are threatened. And because they're that stupid, they're usually not keen on hiding their own information, making it a simple matter to dig up their nasty little secrets and make them public knowledge.

You don't go to war if you can't defend yourself, and the majority of those who do can't.

If they plan on following through, then that's their plan. I'll plan to deal with it. Tongue

I can't say I don't care, not because of me, but because I live with my family. My dad works from home, so the internet going down is well bad. I have a 5 year old sister, so I'm sure a swat team ragging through the door would be a great experience for her. I try to make as little enemies as possible, but as you guys know, its not easy when people can be such douches.
