This was.... A disappointing article, to say the least

Snitching. A secret stays a secret stays a secret. Also, if you state the conditions under which you feel able to share some information, the other one agrees, but brakes this by sharing with other people anyway, there even is the possibility to get this officially punished in germany. So, if your Ma gets to know whatever I'm fracking up right now, see you in court, AH! I know this is hardly provable by a court's standard, but the entire hassle they'd go through, then, just serves a snitch right.
