Technically no; and I work in the technical field. If our name is tied to our account then I don't want to have a platinum membership. Non-platinum members can only be traced by their ip address. Platinum can be traced to name, address, and credit card #.... A LOT more info then most people want available.
I have no need to worry because I don't do anything illegal...however from what the media says "IT BEING BULLSHIT" the feds don't play by the rules...they hack the server get the info needed then pop somebody for say...selling or buying GHB via the net. They don't present the email evidence in court because they don't have to...1. They caught the package 2.The person signed for and opened the package before they make the arrest and 3. They most likely will subpoena the money transfer records i.e.: Western Union, Pay Pal etc. And they know how you paid because they hacked your email and read it.
I personally believe the emails to elite members with their real name are either 1. A hacker fucking with people or 2. The feds telling us that they are watching our every move.
