The main takeaway for me is the following. Everything you post online will end up in a public archive. That includes everything you post to supposedly private or semi-private venues, like Telegram channels. Everything you posted when you were a dumb kid will be there too, however long ago that was. So, if you’re gonna be a cybercrminal, make absolutely sure that you start with a clean slate. No one can know the connections to your past, because even if you’re careful, other idiots can let slip (like using your old moniker to address you) at any time. And don’t post fucking photos, ever.
