Sounds like they still will be tracking him to me. The "don't talk to a lawyer, you're boring" thing just seems like a pretty lame attempt to say, "just forget this happened," so that they can surveil him more. Personally, I think they feel he will lead them to someone 'big' or 'of interest,' which is why they also didn't bother busting him for weed (or they just didn't read the Reddit post).
