Title: British Army Electronic Battle Box
Post by: shell on February 12, 2012, 11:54 am
This item is freely available on the British Army's Restricted LAN Interconnect (DII) which is accessible from most workstations in army bases. It's also available as a collection of 7 CD-ROMs - but I'll only accept a network transfer.

Mostly basic training material, nothing exciting.

Will pay according to difficulty of acquisition.

If you look up the contents you'll see it's quite pedestrian. Certainly no more "terroristy" than http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/index.php/silkroad/item/6876.

It's a collection of PDFs. I want to download them via Tor, I don't care how they're stored on your end.

Riddle me this, if they are simply a bunch of basic military training manuals, then why do you want them?

Because I'm interested in warfare and military technology, is that allowed?

If you're an Army geek, sure...

But on the other hand there could be useful information to Afghan/Iraqi rebels in there. Take the Northern Irish war for example, I remember that the rebels knew the British military procedures when there had been a bomb explosion.

An explosive device destroys an army transport killing/wounding one or two units. Then the ambulances and police and other military units arrive on the scene. Then a much much larger bomb explodes, killing them too. Very smart, very deadly, and it all depends on understanding the enemy's simplest, even apparently trivial procedures.

The problem is that we have no idea what your motivations are. You could be sitting next to a IED making factory in Iraq or even in England for all we know. Whether the information is basic or advanced is irrelevant, it's your motivation that really matters. The Silk Road is about the supply of illegal drugs, nothing more or less. Our enemy is the DEA, not MI-5, disjoint sets as it were. Many of us support the ideals that Western military and intelligence agencies fight for, even if that's with reservations about certain actions or implementations, which is entirely proper in a democracy.

If I were you I'd just sign up as a reservist and make a request. You'll even get a small pension later on for doing so. I don't think we will help you here.

Very well. When did Silk Road resign itself to being the "illegal drug store" and not the more general "anonymous marketplace" advertised? Not that it matters, if you don't want this on the site I can respect that.
