>4chan Ban/IP Address Mixup? Help, suicidal af
>I have been posting on 4chan boards a lot, r9k, sometimes soc nude threads, which are all overage /they're supposed to ban underage people who post. maybe that's stupid, and sometimes I freak out about it. I have ocd and will worry and have intrusive thoughts about somewhat slim possibilities sometimes.
>So I was posting on a 4chan thread on mobile, which i normally don't do, and got this message saying I had been banned, for "ban evasion" and then it showed this pic of the post I had supposedly posted, which i definitely didn't post, and said my ip address...
>The pic was some anime girl eating a fish and it said something weird. i don't even watch anime.
now i'm freaking out that someone used my ip address somehow to post illegal shit like cp? I would genuinely kill myself if i got in trouble for this shit. I am 100% not a pedo and one of my worst fears is somehow accidentally downloading something like that kind of material. can people impersonate your ip address? i thought proxys could only take you through ip addresses that people agreed to be relays for, like TOR relays...
>wtf. should i get a lawyer? talk to the police??
>i didn't post this behind a proxy bc my internet connection is so slow and i don't think i've said anything incriminating.. i'm not trying to hide anything, i just am freaking out about this b/c 4chan's weird and idk what someone could've posted to get banned when all sorts of weird shit doesn't get banned
