Beware of Fingerprints in your Cannabis Pictures. - Security & Legal Issues - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

J0sh1 · 03-15-2007, 07:27 AM

I have been browsing the Flower Pix section of the forum and have noticed that a lot of people have taken pictures and their fingerprints show very clearly. You would be surprised at how easy it would be to make an identification with a lot of the pictures I have seen published here. I personally am skilled in the Henry Clasification Method and i was terrified at the sight of how people were so careless when it came to concealing their fingerprints. Remember guys you only need a very small portion of a print to get an identification.

I know i am sounding very paranoid but seeing how fucked up the U.S. Goverment is and has been in the past, it would not surprise me one bit if some jackass in the DEA would get a proyect like that started.

Just a friendly advice from a fellow cannabis follower.

Peace

I'm not sure if you've heard but the government doesn't have enough $$ to keep the programs they have open NOW, running.

How many people do you think a multi-million dollar program to ID fingerprints in weed forum postings would snag?

It would not take a multi-million dollar program to do this is the thing.
It would probably be a 1 or 2 guys to collect the photographic evidence from the site. 10-20 guys working on the clasification could EASILY process 100+ prints in a day. After you get the result just run that result over in the many databases that they have access to and chances are they matches will start popping fairly quickly.

I just want to spread the word that this thing is very easy to do and it would not take that much of budget to pull it off, im just trying to warn people to be careful about the closeups on the fingerprints. Thats all.

It should be appreciated,wish I could count on the authorities being too "poor" to put me in a cage,I know better.You think you're concerned?I've been around the forums six years now and I wouldn't post a pic online for real money,no way.If you doubt a new "offensive" against growers with pics posted is possible,more power to ya.I've been around too long and know what they're capable of,I wouldnt post felonius pics online for sex drugs or rocknroll!If a person has a plant or three and has some problems,I can see it.When a commercial guy wants to be a kingpin and show off,I cant understand it at all.

Must admit, I've never noticed photos of fingerprints in the flower section. Hands, feet, plants yes, but finger prints no. Nice macro work folks.

Americangrower · 03-15-2007, 02:27 PM

How do you get a fingerprint on a digital picture????

Thats not possible, a picture of your hand yes but a fingerprint

please post this pictureS from IC's gallery as would love to see the prints.

Plus where not murderers here so it's going to be hard to justify using the lab time on a non violent offensive.
