Rifles.
I have to ask: what are you going to do? Shoot Facebook? Snipe iCloud?
Start blasting Google?
Pretty sure a rifle is in no way a useful tool for any sort of online privacy.
If there was ever a time for a “touch grass” comment this would be it.
Not very private to put your name on a government list of gun owners.
That's not needed in my state.
Not everyone here lives in your state
I was suggesting the OP may live in a similar state, using mine as an example.
The assumption was: buying a gun = registration in a government database. That's not a valid assumption, so I provided a counter example.
It's a valid assumption in my state.
