What? really? You've never heard the addage: Once it's on the internet, it's out there for good/all to see?
I know plenty of Police who use facebook and myspace, and good on them. If you're dumb enough to put EVIDENCE of you breaking the law on a PUBLIC system, especially if it's marked PUBLIC, then you deserve everything you get. :lol:
Now if they hack your account and violate the EULA and such, then I can see a problem.
I think you summed it up perfectly here.
I see people all the time getting themselves into trouble with work, spouses, and worse by posting incriminating pictures or other evidence right out where anyone can see it. I guess it is because, even on a place like FaceBook where your name and location is attached to everything you post, the lack of face to face interaction breeds a feeling of anonymity.
It sounds like the kid was brought in on suspicion because of the picture, and then rolled on himself. He possibly could have gotten out of it, but, that part's academic now.
