How many times have people gotten away with something similar without every being discovered, though? It could be very many.
There's no such thing as a perfect crime.
No such thing as a perfect crime detection system either.

451 is a great status code, right up there with 418.
My favourite part of GDPR is getting to use 451 legitimately everywhere.

Plenty of “good enough” crimes though. No such thing as a perfect crime detection system either.

It's surprising when people casually admit to dishonest behaviour as if it's no big deal.
Maybe it’s not a big deal, unless you value honesty above all else. I am not always honest, especially when it’s obvious to me that the other party will only use my goodwill to their advantage. In the case of the parent, I can imagine many scenarios where it is difficult or untimely to get supervisor approval, but failure or delay in doing so results in the employee catching all the heat for it.

> I am not always honest,
I work with regulated professionals. Honesty is a big deal. Dishonesty is seen as a fundamental personal flaw. Healthcare professionals who've been dishonest struggle to show remediation.
It's really weird to me that I need to explain that forging someone else's name on documents is a bad idea.

For the most part, water pistols look nothing like firearms. I very much doubt that you'd be in danger of being treated as an armed threat when holding a transparent, green, plastic gun that's leaking water.
If someone already suspects you have a firearm they don't need evidence... they need an excuse. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_of_Trayvon_Martin
I guess this brings up and interesting issue -- once someone knows the ins and outs of a system, sometimes there are very few barriers internally to check that an order/paperwork is legit. There was a story in WSJ like last week about how the Japanese red stamp / seal still survives and is a barrier to them adopting new technology for practical every day speeding up of tasks. And keeps things like faxes around unnece…

Did it really work, or was it due to a happenstance: In November, Hillsborough County prosecutors became suspicious when they heard from a state forensic examiner, who had been scheduled to perform a competency evaluation on Landon. The examiner saw a notice in Landon’s court file that prosecutors had dropped charges; the examiner wanted to know if the examination should go forward. How would it have been detected if…
> Indictments allege Landon also filed an order falsifying a decision of retired Superior Court Judge Gillian Abramson to waive filing fees in a lawsuit she brought against Hillsborough County. And she allegedly filed an order on behalf of a relative to halt guardianship proceedings involving Landon’s child. The loose ends aren't separable from her desired outcomes. They're integral. You can't "tie up the loose ends"…
> "Hold on, why'd this case drop off the docket", says the DA. "I didn't file this", says the lawyer. "My ruling is due next week", says the judge.
That's someone caring enough. The loose ends are entirely separable when discussing hypotheticals.
amusingly enough, coming from the EU the site told me: "451: Unavailable due to legal reasons"

What city was this in? Is it in a place where other people have real guns? Is it in a place where the cops have guns? I both want to play and suspect that it would go really really badly.

Side note : why are some sites still not GDPR complient ?
