Using a throaway for this.
So I've been reading through the thread 'Children should not be here' and the general point I see being made is that if a child orders drugs to their parent's house the parents can be charged, even if the child is an adult.
I am one of those people. However, I told my dad I was going to do it first. I explained to him the security I use (tails, bitcoin tumbling, pgp encryption etc.) I told him about busts that have already happened (and how unlikely/rare they are in the UK). He was happy that there is a small amount of risk and so I ordered. I take my security VERY seriously. I don't want to go to prison. I researched for months and read these forums every day for updates on security and vendors. Every time I even consider making an order, I'll have a conversation with the vendor first and see if I feel comfortable ordering from them (no use of pgp encryption in a reply and poor grammar will usually never hear from me again). I have only ever bought bitcoins with my own money that I have earned working a job.
What I'm trying to say is, I don't think I'm stupid or reckless. However, the thread has given me some stuff to think about and I'm going to try to weigh up the pros and cons of getting a PO box in the UK (because the law and postal service is very different to the US).
Surely because I am 18, and can be charged for my own actions, my parents have absolutely nothing to worry about in terms of legal action being brought upon them if I am ordering to my address with my real name. Or am I missing something?
And if they do have something to worry about, then this is absolutely no different to the people in this sub who order with their own families in their house (wife and kids) or people who order with roommates, right? Surely those situations are even more selfish; a wife or roommates who don't know that you're ordering certainly don't deserve legal action.
Any reason why you made a serperate post for this instead of just leaving a comment in the main thread?
