MODERATORS
If they have no proof prior, they will absolutely wreck you with a comment like that linked to an account you own. That's a confession, which you made, it is idiotic as you gained nothing admitting to it.
Only because many people don't care, doesn't mean it doesn't matter.
A comment on social media is not a confession.
Also it's no proof that any piracy took place. It would be a different thing altogether if they already had evidence and you confessed to it, but as is, not everything said on the internet is true. Here, my "confession"
The fact I said that in a comment on Lemmy doesn't make it true.
...Did you see any alien friends during your raid?
Depends. Are you with the US gov?
Bold statement, i can find countless cases where a confession posted on social media was used as evidence.
