Just for comedic purposes. Since I don't have any social media, people always mistake me for someone else, whenever they do a google search of my name. I'm tired of someone coming up to me and asking me if I went to a certain school, etc. Then the idea of making my own website came into mind. I was able to secure a domain with my first and last name; now I'm considering creating a site presenting myself as an expert in something completely arbitrary and non existent. Maybe I can say I went to the school of anime physics and got my PhD in the study of universes that exist in Dragon Ball Z. I would wear a suit and take a stock photo to make it professional and everything.

Of course, I intend to take down the site when I have prospects for future employment. But for now, I want to have a little fun. Is in anyway illegal?

I wouldn't think so. There are only a few things that are inherently illegal to pretend to be, like cops and distinguished military awards.

I like spanking. I'm not sure if I like to be on the other end though. Hmmm, maybe I might add that to my profile bit.

So what I presented myself as a cyber cop from the future where AI supposedly has taken over? Will it still count as impersonating an officer of the law?
