Silk Road forums

One of the developers started a long thread about this on the forum.

Also, I can't find it now, maybe the thread was deleted, but somebody else started a fork of BitWasp.

The project has positives and negatives. A positive is that anybody can start their own market place without paying huge fees. A negative is that it's harder for buyers to confirm the authenticity of the vendors.

+1 last 9 pages. So is anyone doing anything exciting for the end of the world? I'm gonna drop 180 mg MDMA tonight.

Monrovia, get back to me about Tails

By "vendor's sites" I assume you mean the main market place.  Were you using this link?

Did you try to access it by clicking on the link on Wikipedia? Because that was changed to a phishing site a few days ago.

Using someone else's wifi isn't as foolproof as it sounds, and depends a lot on how it is done. People have distributed cp through their neightbor's wifi. The neighbor got raided, but after LE found no cp at that house, the investigation widened and the culprit was eventually busted. There are only so many neighbors that can access someone's wifi.

Parking in front of a random person's house is pretty suspicious and people have been busted doing that.

Going to a random business with open wifi sounds like a good idea, but if you go to the same place often enough, you can get busted doing that too. They often have cameras, and it's a matter of seeing who was in the store every time the subject of interest was online. In a big city you may have enough options to rotate and never reuse locations, which would be the strongest protection.

haha, I actually didn't use the search function. It blows anyway. I knew it was a recent thread so I went through each page of the Off Topic section and Ctrl+F'ed for "FBI". Found it about 5 pages back.

I hate tripping in public because I feel like *everybody knows* I'm tripping and they're all staring at me.

Warning: Directory /var/run/tor does not exist

Warning: Before Tor can create a control socket in "/var/run/tor/control," the directory "/var/run/tor" needs to exist, and to be accessible only by the user account that is running Tor. (on some unit systems, anybody who can list a socket can connect to it, so Tor is being careful)

Edit: the info that I had here won't be useful, based on what I've learned about Tails, see below.

I hope this didnt occur in the future.

Are you a time traveler?
