> I were DOJ I would either (A) demand root access to server or (B) employ admins,

See, the CIA is interesting: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/modern-art-was-cia-weapon-1578808.html . Instead of hiring someone to do it, they found someone that was already doing it and sent him cash.

Interesting!

Whatever he did think, he is now no longer in control of the site; all bets were off after he failed to bring back snacks.

> Feds don't understand fediverse.

I'm inclined to agree. (Did you read the FBI thing? I forget who I have sent it to and I think I sent it to you but maybe I didn't: https://blog.freespeechextremist.com/blog/fse-vs-fbi.html )

> I'm tempted to say that feds cannot and will not understand 4chan for the same reasons they can't understand fediverse

I remember seeing their attempts to explain who Anonymous was after the Chanology stuff, they were obsessed with figuring out who the "leader" was. I think they've figured it out, otherwise they wouldn't have flipped Sabu.

> they would put site admins on their payroll and offer them kickbacks when they forward "actionable content" -- they tried to offer me a deal exactly like that for my network,

Now this is interesting!

> And thus a janny manages to no longer do it for free.

Makes sense.
