Silk Road forums

Well first I still don't know why you're telling me this. Secondly, I never said I wouldn't fuck a young woman. I'm just a young man with raging hormones! I'd fuck just about any fully mature woman! I just simply said I would prefer an older woman; idk maybe it's a fetish or something, more experience maybe.
& yeah, dude, I'm going to lie about what type of woman I like to fuck! That makes perfect since

My mistake, I confused you with jrailer.

Too bad your ancestors didn't prefer females 35-55 years old, then you wouldn't likely even be here.

You're making an assumption on my personal preferences and morality, and considering you're scolding members for the same reason, I find your argument hypocritical. As a matter of fact sir, I prefer older women who aren't timid and who lack a  malleable psyche and know their way around a cock.

Okay I guess you are exceptional

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_attractiveness

Attractiveness research indicates that heterosexual men tend to be attracted to young[84] and beautiful women[85] with bodily symmetry.[86] Rather than decreasing it, modernity has only increased the emphasis men place on women's looks.[87] Evolutionary psychologists attribute such attraction to an evaluation of the fertility potential in a prospective mate.[84]

Well fertility starts to drop at age 24.

The common explanation for this preference is that men have evolved to be attracted to women with high child-bearing potential and therefore prefer young women. A stronger preference of youthfulness (detected by female hormone markers) reflects female fertility and the reproductive value mean.[110] As females age, the estrogen-to-androgen production ratio changes and results in female faces to appear more and more masculine (thus appearing less "attractive").[110] In a small (n=148) study performed in the United States using male college students at one university, the mean age expressed as ideal for a wife was found to be 16.87 years old, while 17.76 was the mean ideal age for a brief sexual encounter; however, the study sets up a framework where "taboos against sex with young girls" are purposely diminished, and biased their sample by removing any participant over the age of 30, with a mean participant age of 19.83.[111] In a study of penile tumescence, men were found most aroused by pictures of young adult females.[112]

   These findings, released to widespread media attention in a 923-page tome, Sex
Offenders: An Analysis of Types, were hardly a surprise to the general public. After all,
sexual attraction to adolescents is widespread and, indeed, evolutionarily adaptive
(Kenrick & Keefe, 1992); scholars across a range of disciplines have established that
both heterosexual and homosexual men across cultures and time periods tend to prefer
youthful partners who are at the peak of both beauty and reproductive fertility (Bailey,
Gaulin, & Agyei, 1994). Consequently, legal proscriptions against adult–adolescent
sexual behavior vary widely from nation to nation and even within nations such as the
United States.

   In a subsequent study, Freund confirmed the normalcy of sexual arousal to
adolescents. His subjects were 48 young Czech soldiers, all presumed to be ‘‘normal’’
and heterosexual in orientation. He showed the men pictures of children (ages 4–10
years old), adolescents (ages 12–16), and adults (ages 17–36). As expected, most of the
heterosexual men were sexually aroused by photos of both adult and adolescent
females. They were not aroused by pictures of males of any age, and were aroused at an
intermediate level by pictures of children (Freund & Costell, 1970).

   This unsurprising tendency of normal heterosexual men to be sexually aroused by
adolescents was confirmed by other researchers. Like Freund, a group of researchers in
Canada was attempting to perfect physiological tools for measuring sexual arousal.
These researchers found that their instruments could distinguish between the arousal
patterns of child molesters and a control group exposed to slides of female children
(ages 5–11), but both groups showed similar arousal patterns to slides of pubescent girls
(ages 12–15) (Quinsey, Steinman, Bergerson, & Holmes, 1975).

           sexual attraction to adolescents is not rare, as are all of the listed examples of
paraphilia NOS. Indeed, it is significantly more common than pedophilia. Due to the
commonplace nature of attraction to postpubescent children, it seems logical that the
DSM authors would have specifically listed this condition if they had intended to
pathologize it as a mental disorder.

hey what do you know I finally found a reference that adolescent teenage girls are at peak fertility

http://forensicpsychologist.blogspot.de/2007/10/invasion-of-hebephile-hunters.html

The absurdity of describing erotic attraction to adolescents as a mental abnormality is that most normal heterosexual men are sexually attracted to teenage girls (who happen to be at the peak of their reproductive fertility). This fact is well established by multiple research studies over the past several decades. Such findings are certainly no surprise to the moguls of popular culture or to the advertising industry, which uses provocative images of teen girls and boys to sell everything from clothes to cars.

Given the scientifically unsupported nature of this emerging diagnosis, I suspect that clinicians will apply it arbitrarily, and especially to men who are sexually involved with male teenagers. I am already seeing this trend informally, in my reviews of forensic reports on sex offenders. Ironically, any such biased application will further turn the tables on Magnus Hirschfeld and the ancient Greeks' aesthetic appreciation for the adolescent male body.

What kind of specs would a laptop need for browsing SR fluently and watching hd movies from a portable HD , i wouldn't need anything to flash would i ?

You would need a HD resolution screen, which brings the cost up significantly, but it can still be fairly cheap. You could get the cheapest laptop with 1080P resolution and be fine.

My prediction is they found him through Liberty Reserve server seizures. He was probably paying for hosting using LR, or he was accepting payments through LR to set up shady people Tor hidden services. They could go through the seized LR server records and find where he changed it into fiat easily by forcing an exchanger to comply, or just reading the LR transfer comments. Often exchangers will put in identifying information in LR comments like "Exchange for Bob Smith- Tel xxx.xxx.xxx". In the court docs he withdrew a bunch of money in Romania using a visa/mc debit card, which was most likely linked to Liberty Reserve and clearly not anonymous enough.

I think it is not likely they found him through liberty reserve although I guess it is possible. It is also worth mentioning that he didn't make a single person pay for hosting.

Another method is they simply became a good customer of his and waited for him to dry rat himself out over time so they could build a profile of who he really was. That's how they found most of the Lulzsec hackers, just let them talk themselves into jail.

He had no contact at all with his "customers".

With all this renewed attention to CP and pedos I wonder if/hope that pedobaiting will become a viable moneymaking option again.

Normally scamming should earn you a IRL beating in my opinion but when it comes to pedos I say all is fair game, take their goddamn life savings if you can get by with it. Most are wise enough to know that past a certain point isn't worth it but every once in a while you get some sick middle aged professor who's married and a deacon in the community and they'll gladly fork over $250 in the hopes that you're not willing to risk anything taking their info to the cops or spreading it all over Facebook.

Really other than lotteries I can't think of a better way to pay for trips on the Road than with the hardearned money of sick fucks. A few hours of work and the small amount of dignity associated with playing the pretend game for however long it takes can be a nice startup.

I know a guy who used to post Craigslist ads posing as a 15-16 year old and he'd get sexual replies, bait them into incriminating themselves and instead of a underage girl answering the phone her "Dad" or "brother" in the military would answer and threaten to call the cops or brutally murder them. Usually they send their address so it makes it easier. $250 is actually what he used to charge too. Hahaha. I wonder if he still does it because that was pure awesome. I'm pretty sure 16 is legal in most states too. But I think it's a crime to solicit sex with anyone under 18 online federally.

That is pretty epic haha, I remember back in 06-08 there were entire sites devoted to it where people could swap tactics and a few people even set up IRL stings. The pedos that go for 16 year olds though are usually wise enough to the loopholes and technicalities, I prefer the takedowns of the really sick fucks that prey on 11-13 year olds and the younger age tends to add more leverage.

Nobody thinks that people who have sex with 16 year olds are pedophiles you ignorant bigoted dumb fuck.

The exploit causes browser to crash in many (but not all) cases so if it was around for a while it would have probably been noticed when people reported browser crashes. No proof it was the only exploit, but we then must wonder why would the FBI use other exploits ? If they have a zero day exploit they used as well to get the patched users, why even bother to put an old exploit up as well, as the zero day would be all that is needed to target all users. The exploit was identified shortly after the down for maintenance messages started, nobody knows for certain when they were originally put there but unless they put them there before they arrested the person who seems to be FH admin, we have a definite maximum period of time they could have been there. The only thing that comes to mind is that perhaps the FBI put an obvious exploit on the site to make it be identified and make people with newer patched versions etc less paranoid so that they don't delete their caches of CP and have evidence available when FBI raids them. But if the FBI did this it would mean they think most users were on the patched version, as they would then induce people with unpatched versions to delete any evidence in order to get users with patched version to feel safe in not doing so.

If I had to guess my guess would be that the exploit was not there for very long, and that there was only one used, but it is all speculation. When the FBI busted pedoforum hidden service they left some exploit up for two weeks I think, and then after this was revealed they were harshly criticized for allowed child porn to keep trading. From this I can assume two things, either the FBI did the same thing to freedom hosting and the exploit was around for about two weeks, or the FBI didn't want more backlash for letting the biggest CP networks in the world continue trading CP for two weeks, so they went with the maintenance message instead but then had their exploit discovered and fucked off.

The only secure way to delete files on Windows is to wipe the entire drive, I suggest using Secure Erase followed by a single pass with random data from DBAN.

A lot of speculation. There is no concrete proof it is even FH admin who was arrested yet, it just appears that it is the case. There is evidence that at the very least FH was hacked and had javascript exploits embedded in it that can deanonymize certain users who visit sites on it (users on Windows with old unpatched Tor browser with javascript enabled). The fact that FH having this attack code on it correlated with the bust of someone who is alleged to have hosted 100 CP sites with millions of images on them, and who it took the FBI a good deal of time to track down, strongly indicates but doesn't prove that the FBI somehow pwnt freedom hosting and somehow injected javascript exploits into it to target users accessing it, and that the busted dude in Ireland is FH admin. None of this has a shred of concrete evidence backing it up, and all of the news agencies reporting on it are literally reporting on rumors and speculation as if they are fact, it is actually rather disgusting watching the media report speculation as fact, they are doing a piss poor job as journalists and taking a gamble that they will be proven right in the future.

Websites essentially consist of data files and programs running on computers, usually somewhat specialized computers called servers (although even a home PC is a server if it acts as one). In the case of Tor hidden services this is even more the case, as they don't rely on external parties to assign a domain name to them, and the key that essentially gives them their domain name is a file on the server as well. Take the server and you took the website, though other copies of it may exist on other servers and be able to go online in the future.
