I have mostly relocated and have started a new career-ish job. Because of the agreements I have with my employer, my OPSEC/PERSEC situation is a little bit more touchy so I will need to be shy on some details when posting shenanigans and whatnot.
My relocation will reduce my content posting for a little bit but things should go back to more-or-less "normal" in a month or two. My new place should let me work on some interesting projects and I'll post what I can about them as usual. Stuff like MG34 and PTRD updates won't really be affected. As a bonus, some larger projects could finally be birthed onto the actual market where it would have been nigh impossible to do so as a private civilian entity beforehand.
>why haven't I made a youtube channel
I've mentioned youtube vids, channels, and such a few times and I have previously experimented with youtube. The reason for abandoning those endeavors is simple so I'll be blunt.
I've seen too many people up here, a few are actual real life friends, get completely raped by the horse cops. We're talking 2+ years of court battles and over 40000 leaf yen in associated fees. They were innocent and in the end were cleared of all charges (obviously), but that doesn't matter. This is leafland, if firearms are involved you are NOT innocent until proven guilty. If you are charged, do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars, you're basically fucked. The prosecution will throw any and all kinds of shit at the wall just to see what sticks with no accountability. If you are a legal law-abiding firearms owner in Canada, no matter how above-and-beyond you stick to the letter of all the laws, you risk getting tied to the ground and fucked with a legal rake just because someone doesn't like your face. They do not have any problems with planting evidence, sabotaging, booby-trapping, or performing other unsavory acts just to see how juicy of a newspaper headline they can come up with.
I do not, will not, have not performed illegal acts or condoned such acts. It may sound "paranoid" to have such feelings about certain authorities, but regardless of how it may seem, it is more than bad luck and some anecdotes. The fact is that if someone sees something they think is illegal, even if it isn't in any way, you can kiss your life goodbye.
Basically, until I can secure a position of safety and security by befriending as many of the local authorities as possible (something that's more or less possible now), my activity will remain quite subdued. I have seen potentially terrifying legal situations diffused by good character references from the first responders, so anything helps. I do have legal insurance specific to firearm ownership, but for the foreseeable future, I will be keeping my activity off the main social channels to put my mind at ease. Most of the aforementioned cases were because some soccermom/fudd saw something on some social channel and went full MUH CHILLUNS, so I guess OPchan being under the usual radars has some benefits. I mean the most we seem to get is a sales guy wandering in from google and putting his name, email, and post subject in the fields while fumbling with post links and tripping over replies in complete confusion so I'm a little less wary of putting content here than other websites.
