STATE: PENDING ACTION CASE 0001-JD REMAINING —

Notice · Document RP-0001 · Resolution of an outstanding matter

Hi John —

I have decided that we cannot continue this friendship. That decision is final.

Past confrontations between us have ended badly. I am not willing to risk that again. That is why I am writing this through a portal — not in person, not on the phone. That is not negotiable.

This is not about one incident. The decision is the cumulative weight of patterns over time — most consistently, you dismissing what I share with you and the way conflict between us escalates. I have adapted how I communicate with you repeatedly. My adaptation has reached its limit.

Before contact ends, you and I need to resolve one practical matter.

§ 01The intimate content

On January 17, 2026, you posted intimate content of us to two public platforms without my prior consent:

Your iMessage to me hours later — "Would you have preferred I ask? Sorry. I feel like it upset you cause you went silent" — confirms that you did not get my consent beforehand. I did not consent to public distribution. I am withdrawing any that may have appeared from my attempts to preserve the friendship.

Three laws apply here:

The same point applies under all three: agreeing to make intimate content is not the same as agreeing to share it publicly. Consent given under pressure does not count.

§ 02Your two options

You have seven calendar days from receipt of this letter to select one of the following.

Option One

Take Down and Delete

Within seven days:

  1. Take down both public posts so they are no longer publicly accessible:
  2. Permanently delete every copy of the intimate content from every device, cloud account, backup, and external storage location you own or hold.
  3. Submit a Verification Log via the portal listing every location where content was deleted, with file hashes where available, and screenshots of the now-removed posts.
  4. Sign a declaration under — under penalty of perjury — stating that:
    • you have removed both posts;
    • you have deleted all copies;
    • you retain no copies;
    • you will not create or distribute any copies in the future;
    • and that you accept the non-disparagement covenant set out in § 02A below.
Option Two

Take Down and Covenant

Within seven days:

  1. Take down both public posts so they are no longer publicly accessible:
  2. You may retain one copy for strictly private use.
  3. Sign a declaration under that:
    • you will not distribute, publish, share, sell, or transmit any such content to any third party, on any platform, at any time, in any form;
    • and that you accept the non-disparagement covenant set out in § 02A below.

If you select Option Two and later distribute the content, that distribution violates (up to $150,000 plus fees), (up to 2 years), and the DC NCP Act (up to 3 years). I will pursue civil action and file reports with the appropriate authorities.

Both declarations are legally binding under the federal when you sign via typed full legal name through the portal.

If you do not select Option One or Option Two within seven days, the matter advances automatically: I will submit the pre-filed StopNCII.org reports for both posts. I will initiate civil action under . I will file reports under the applicable Maryland and District of Columbia statutes. You will receive no further notice.

§ 02ANon-disparagement covenant

This covenant applies in both Option One and Option Two. By signing either declaration, you also agree to the following:

You agree not to talk negatively about Michael or this matter to anyone — including on social media, in texts, in emails, or in private conversations. Michael has personally heard you gossip about other people. You have also come to Michael with gossip about him — telling him "I heard this about you" — coming from people in your circle that Michael is not friends with. The same behavior is not acceptable here.

This agreement only applies to this matter. It does not restrict your life beyond this.

You may still talk about this matter with: a lawyer, a therapist or doctor, police or other law enforcement, a court if required, or close family members in private.

If you break this agreement, Michael will pursue civil action for damages and a court order to stop the behavior.

§ 03Contact

The portal is the only correspondence channel between us going forward. I issue login credentials separately. You may not use any other method of communication outside the portal, including but not limited to:

You have previously created accounts to monitor an ex-partner during a period when contact was prohibited. That is on record. If you repeat that conduct, I will pursue charges under (harassment, up to 180 days) and (threats / harassment, up to 180 days), without further notice.

§ 04Public encounters

If our paths cross in public, I will acknowledge you with a nod and continue on my way. I expect the same from you — distance maintained, no approach, no engagement. Given your prior experience maintaining distance from your ex, the same expectation applies here.

§ 05Monitoring and pre-filed reports

I have prepared the pre-filed StopNCII.org reports for both posts. Once submitted, the reports add the digital fingerprints (perceptual hashes) of this content to the cross-platform takedown systems used by Meta, TikTok, Bumble, OnlyFans, Reddit, and other participating platforms. Once submitted, that submission is irreversible. See §02 for when I will submit them.

As you know, I have cameras around my apartment, inside and out. With facial recognition enabled, they will notify me if they detect you in or around my home. I have a secured local copy of the intimate content. I have recorded its digital fingerprint frame by frame, with a tamper-proof chain of custody. Similarly, I attest that I have not shared, published, distributed, sold, transmitted, or displayed the intimate content to any third party, on any platform, in any form, and I will not do so in the future. A continuous monitoring system runs. It detects any reappearance of the content across the public internet, including via burner accounts, cropped re-uploads, watermarked re-uploads, or re-encoded copies.

If you appear at my residence or attempt contact outside the portal, I will file a police report under each of the following:

If any of the content appears anywhere online, I will file civil action under and criminal reports under the applicable state statutes — without further notice.

§ 06Closure

Once you sign and the portal verifies your choice, we are done communicating. You will receive no further contact from me.

This notice is confidential legal correspondence. I delivered it to you alone, authenticated and logged. If you disclose this notice or its contents — by screenshot, recording, transmission, republication, or any other means — to any third party, I will treat it as evidence of bad faith. That disclosure may also constitute additional violations under the statutes cited above.

— Michael
