    Sure, but best not to do illegal shit. However, if you are doing performative illegal shit because you feel angry with some aspects of an institution(s) you find questionable, perhaps find someone to give the reasons for your speedrunning or whatever you’re performing otherwise you might end up with a criminal record and that’s going to stuff up your life choices a bit.

      If you are going to have a criminal record, “tormenting the church of scientology” is a pretty respectable thing to have on it. I would be more inclined to hire someone who did that.

        Personally I agree with you but not everyone thinks the same. There are also other matters to consider like whether you are a repeat offender, the age the offence was committed, etc. In the current authoritarian climate we need to warn kids not to stop protesting and pranking but to think how they’re doing it so it doesn’t become self-harming.

        true, as would it, however there are regulatory bullshits to consider. if somehow the financial industry makes tormenting the church of scientology a crime they can’t tolerate for, i don’t know, reasons that have absolutely positively nothing to do with shelley miscavige’s conspicuously missing skull, maybe you don’t want to work in the financial industry.

      The reason is (mostly?) lolz.

      Which is far from evil here. At least mask up or whatever to the point of not being (facial recognition + legally) identifiable before posting to your social media about someone who isn’t me (SWIM). As per OP, opsec, learn to love it or learn regrets.

        Yes, i agree it’s not evil. They’re kids. It’s the melding of cyber reality with physical reality together with the illegal action that makes me a bit nervous.
