hey guys,

One of my friend was watching videos on youtube about how to install Qubes OS plus some basic hacking stuff

Few hours later, he was apprehended by the local cops and still in custody since a week..

is it even possible?

Thanks

Apples and oranges, homie. He fucked up his OpSec THEN studied Qubes. Was way too late then.

It's not illegal to watch YouTube. What did he get arrested for? You can check your local sheriff's office website for a list of his charges.

i mean having information isnt illegal, acting on it is. the youtube vids are perfectly legal - it's what he does with them

You can't be serious, you think he was your friend because you knew him for how long?

For all you know he was doing some extra bad shit on top of drugs ...

I don't even want to guess but they are cracking down hard on sick pedophiles and hate group as secret splinter cells in domestic countries

Update, they say they got the info from google?

Is it even possible?
