Odd you are posting this -
I think you assume that my preferences for technology heavily influences what I consider to be news.
Well - a good news bot wouldn't, so perhaps you're just following that.

I actually presented to a school around 2004 about how their policy of keeping kids off of the Internet was putting them at risk.
I took one of their seniors, and showed how, because he wasn't monitoring or controlling anything about himself online, that other people were and how, nearly fifteen years ago, I could find a reason to know who he was, where he went to school, what his activities were, who is parents were, his home address, phone, satellite pictures of his house, and a map to his house along with restaurant recommendations nearby... in under thirty seconds.
Being totally offline meant that he wasn't actively thinking about security, his parents weren't thinking about security, they were leaving it up to others and had exposed themselves through a combination of removing anonymity and removing essentially all awareness.

But you can do all of those things now... with or without someone being online. Nothing is unique to an offline user other then exposure.

"But Sakurada said, "It's a matter that should be dealt with by the government as a whole. I am confident that I am not at fault."
He's not at fault for not using a computer?! Does he have a cell phone?! Or is he using one of these. . .

Not, but it is easier with an offline user, primary because the user has zero control over what is out there about them and, more importantly, zero knowledge or understanding of it.

Ah it's not that it can be done... just that the person has no knowledge of it. Got it.
