That's outdated advice.

It doesn't matter if you don't talk, because the police will join your social media and chat groups and keep asking their questions for years until they get the answers they like.

The difference is that we are living in an extremely invasive surveillance state.

Do you have an article about that?

Unless they get access to your unlocked phone (in which case you already fucked up the "don't talk to the police" part) how would they get invites or know who to talk to?

Real police work isn't like the movies.

Unless you've murdered the Governor's daughter, police will not follow you around on social media for years trying to catch you slip.
