The real question at that point is - "If the cops come banging on your friend's door and wave warrants and subpoenas and cattle prods in his face, how quickly will he fold?" Either he caves or he doesn't. If he caves, you're not anonymous anymore. If he doesn't, you're a moral sleezeball for making him take the heat when he's the sort of friend that would take the heat for you. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
