Straight from the 'it sounded like a good idea at the time, but don't try this at home department…'
A Pennsylvania lawyer has been suspended for placing GPS tracking and recording devices in the car of his former girlfriend to discover who she was dating.
It was fun when comments were sarcastic, provocative and even insulting. Admins now follow a Twitter model and shadow-ban speech they don't like. This is true even though the disclaimer at the bottom of this page notes "the content posted herein is intended for entertainment purposes only. . . ."
For everyone who believes their posts are anonymous, they're not and the admins may know who you are. https://whatismyipaddress.com/get-ip and notice item 7. If you want to try to be anonymous you need a VPN

You are overly paranoid dude. BLogger doesn't provide any tools for identifying IP address, while it's possible they have some other way of logging it, all it is going to do is give a general idea of where the traffic is coming from. Without supreme hacking skills or law enforcement, they're just going to know that you're posting from a macbook and using Cox cable as your provider.
Blogger stats and IP addresses are EASILY obtained through a variety of sources like the old 'sitemeter'. You visit the site, they can see your IP address. The old Wild Wild West blog wasn't smart about it in the beginning and anyone could look and see those addresses at the bottom of the home page of the blog. Some were even clearly identified/tagged.
A blog administrator can determine with an off the shelf program the IP address for any post to the blog. This means the location of the person posting can be determined. It does not mean the poster can be identified within that location. For example, the administrator could determine that a blog post originated from the Supreme Court's server. The blog administrator would not be able to determine that Justice Hardesty was the person writing the post.
So they got out of a billion dollar judgment for $250 million. Pretty good deal.
The donation thing is absurd. MGM needs new counsel and new PR. And free parking.
The James Pengilly suspension received national coverage as the lead story on the ABA Journal website. http://www.abajournal.com/news/article/lawyer_is_suspended_for_flashing_gun_at_deposition_other_appalling_behavior.
The article has the best quote I have seen in quite a long time:
“I have it every day, all day,” he said. “I always carry a gun because I’m an attorney and people don’t like me.”
Horse shit. I know him very personally and this is NOT the truth.

My eyes glossed over at shadow-ban.
we should move to reddit so the admins can *actually* shadow-ban people

Having operated a blog before, 3:25 is exactly right.
And the super-priority lien tender issue is finally resolved in favor of the banks.
