Concerning the fact that no one at my school notices me, (even if they do they just pass me off as someone who doesn't matter), I have the uncanny ability to listen to others conversations with them not even knowing, even if I am sitting right next to them. I don't do it conciously, I just sit there and listen intently to what they're saying. I must say, I find very some conversations to be VERY interesting. Of course, I don't use the information I gain in any way besides to entertain myself in my head. So I have to ask, is this considered eavesdropping? And if it is, should I make it profitable?

Is this considered eavesdropping?

Yes.

should I make it profitable?

Why, what do you know?

Plenty about relationships, gang activity, planned crimes against the school, the list goes on my friend, the list goes on.

I want details dammit :p

The crime ones you can report to crime stoppers and get a reward, it's anonymous.

The relationship ones you can't do without blowing your cover and suddenly becoming "the gossipy freak who spies on everyone"

At least he'll be noticed

The same exact thing happpens to me.

Not if I remain anonymous in all information giving activity. Type up a note (as my handwriting is easily recognized), give it (anonmyously) to a person I think would like some of my information, giving the price of it, giving where to drop off the money. Then if they pay me (anonmyously), I will give the information in another note at the drop-off point of the money when I pick it up. Now all I have to do is find a way to not be recognized when I pick up the money. They will probably be spying on me in order to find out who I am.

The crime ones should be reported just out of principle. Who wants to allow criminals to get away with their crap?

I scored 100% for an English project in which I tape-recorded and analysed conversations.

You may as well get some credit.

*raises hand* Unless I get paid for snitching, that is.

Well if you don't give a shit then hopefully your school has good security so they get caught and hopefully after being caught the school comes down like the wrath of God on the criminals. Hearing about criminals going to jail always makes me smile. :)

Sounds like perfectly good plan for getting the shit kicked out of you.

Really though, with the volumes of information I know about students and staff at my school, I could probably make a pretty penny selling information.

But I WILL make money in the process! Besides, who knows how much the gang activity info will get me... Either shanked or hundreds of dollars.

What shall it profit a man...?

Don't you DARE bring the bible into this discussion. What shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world yet suffer the loss of his soul. Mark 8:36

I thought you only lost your soul if you did something evil or made a deal with the devil. Selling out criminals may get you killed, but it certainly isn't immoral.

sorry bro, I used to be you, trust me. The-Others out there..the one yoou listen in on the conversations..they're actually smarter then they act and they will find you quickly...The punks and emo's and goths..the ones who want to commit crimes..yeah they'll not only catch you quickly but make sure to beat you up as a sign to the jocks and preps. If you want clout(right word?) in H.S./College? get a group you can trust. If you want reputation, win the trust of numerous groups and just enjoy yourself. If you want to be brutallized physically or emotionally and humiliated..try what you're thinking of doing.

Who?
Someone I know. Cool and kinda creepy. He asked for a picture of me, told I was beautiful and then that he sometimes got tired of wanking over females:eek: Nice to know someone likes me though:D

it cant be eaves dropping if you are in plain sight. its just idiots talking in front of a witness

Why would I spy on the goths/emos/punks? And believe me, it's the gangstas who want to commit crimes against the school. The goths/emos/punks are either too lazy, too apathetic, or too smart to try to commit a crime against the school. I mean, the goths are the cliche I relate most to, the emos are just dumber versions of goths, and I respect punks relatively a lot. Now then, I would spy on the jocks/preps/gangstas/etc.

No matter how or why you do it, extortion is a criminal activity. If you were to take information of a potential crime to authority figures, that would be somewhat civic-minded, but trying to obtain money from people to keep you from doing so is reprehensible.

Eavesdropping-Yes

Profitable-Yes

Blackmail. Brilliant. Why don't you just pick a fight with a guy at Gold's Gym and get your crippling ass-beating over with?
