So, my mom was shoulder surfing me the other day while I was posting on here. She started grilling me about TOTSE, and told me that she's heard of us on the news. So, I told her as little as possible without arousing her suspicions. Did I do the right thing by divulging as little as I could?

Well, yeah, what to do you have to hide?

Are you planning on making a 100 megaton potato warhead or somethin'?

Taters?

Well, no, but all she heard on the news was that TOTSE was responsible for the FUCK OFF CLOSED TOTSE sign in the UK, and that we are on the Australian anti-terrorism poster, and here in the US, we are likely watched by DHS, FBI, (insert favorite boogeyman here). She jumped the gun, and assumed I was reading the text files on bombs and shit, and I told her that I read on the hacking stuff, and on BI.

bumpage.

Well, if you told her you were reading that and not the other stuff, then that's that.

It's all trust.

"No, mom, I don't read about homemade explosives. I read about hacking, murder, and wire fraud."

Yeah, I think you made the wise choice there...
