    Questions on Privacy

    Privacy is quite an issue for me. You probably feel quite similar about your fetish. No one wants to shout their thoughts and feelings about balloons from the rooftops, do you?

    This is still quite a sad situation the world hopefully will overcome at some point!

    What actions do you take to protect your privacy? Do you just lock the door, close the curtain? What about the loud noises when doing (accidental) B2Ps?
    And how about your digital footprints? How do you hide? Change IP Addresses often, Proxies, TOR?

    And how do you think about the need for privacy as a looner? Do you consider privacy an issue to take seriously? Do you think fetishists - looner in particular - will ever have the chance to live their life as unconcerned as lesbians or gays do today in the US or in parts of Europe?

    Re: Questions on Privacy

    I always play on my own and have never been caught. (Although there have been some close shaves) I keep my stash in a locked laptop case with the key kept inside a model of a Saturn V rocket (no one would touch it in case it broke). As for the digital stuff, I keep a separate web browser on my iPhone (which is hidden) I don't need to do any more because no one in my family has the knowledge to know how to track what I do and they wouldn't do that anyway.
    How big will it go? Only one way to find out...

      I only bring my balloons out if I know I'm going to be alone for a while and hide them somewhere nobody ever bothers to look. All my clips and pictures are hidden somewhere on my computer and I always use the browser's privacy mode when browsing for porn or balloon related stuff.

        Keeping a small stash, constantly changing hiding strategies, being the "IT guy" in the family, and being fortunate enough to have a family that doesn't pry into my personal life.

          I don't see the need to use a private browser when visiting this website. I do use a different browser when watching videos on youtube, just because I don't want looner suggestions in my "normal" youtube channel.
          Changing IP adresses or using TOR is way too much work for me. If the government (or your ISP) want to track you, they can do so. So I also don't think it would help anything.

          I keep my balloons in a box under my bed. So they are quickly within reach. No need to completely hide them.

            With me I have been caught once by a family member but they forgot about it like it never happened. For me I just go on private mode when I do my looning research, and I keep my collection hidden in my closet which no one goes through. But i do try to be open about the fetish. I did manage to get my gf into it and has a ton of fun with it. Just don't be scared to be open

              Tor, luks, VPN for bittorrent, etc for the digital side.

                TOR and dmcrypt for me, too. A long time ago I started with hidden folders, but when you get to know about all the privacy options you have, your gonna develop a realy privacy fetish xD

                Unfortunately, not all forums are so uncomplicated about TOR users. Sneaker Groups forum e.g. doesn't allow TOR at all and bans those connecting from the wrong country. Some also want you to have an e-mail address by some established company and some (like Fetlife) even want your phone number. My fetish will never get that far that I give my data to those sites.

                In that spirit: Thank you very very much, Vicci, for granting us this anonymous and private spot in the big world of tracking and deanonymization!!!

                  I don't see the point in so much security for a site like this. It's not like it's illegal. In fact if someone discovers all your security methods, it looks like you're doing something illegal and people will want to take a closer look.

                      You can be as anonymous as you want on here. It doesn't take a lot.

                        A few close friends know what me n my partner get upto, sure we've laughed over it, but end of the day they're discrete as it's not their business like they do their own thing in the privacy of their own homes like my partner and I do.

                        As for online privacy..... well it's a simple mater of if you don't want the public to know in the first place- don't post it on the web to start with.

                        I used to be on the social media site VK and posted my own images on there- but nothing that you could call questionable, immoral, or pornographic, nor could you identify myself, or my partner by them. But it soon became apparent my images could easily be discovered by doing a search on Google Images within a matter of weeks. Right click, save n anyone had access to share n redistribute them which is what happened to mine. In the end I took my images down then, gradually removed my profile off there. My 'intellectual property' though was already out in the public domain and probably will be for evermore.
