I know this, I figured that'd get brought up. Aren't there also applications that can detect when one of those is being used?

Not that I know of. There are ways to trace back through IP re-routes in some cases, but certainly not ALL cases. It depends on the levels.

I'm sayin' it's not illegal for you or I to discuss this, not in MI, most certainly. I think it's silly to site law in post to suggest that.

Of course not. I actually think that it's only 'illegal' for those directly involved in the case to discuss the details. If anything, the 'jury' members (if a jury is involved) are generally instructed not to 'pollute' themselves with outside sources of information. As I understand it, the general protocol is that they are not supposed to watch the news, read newspapers, surf the internet or engage in casual discussion of the cases they are involved with. I don't know the specific laws in MI, but I think MF is just being his usual overprotective, anal self. But that's ok, we love him anyway. :kiss::
