Silk Road Forums

I'm not a Mac user, but it seems a lot of your questions are non O/S specific

2. VM or USB?
If your using Whonix, Vm. Tails USB

3. Whonix or Tails?
My opinion Whonix

4. Mac address spoofing? (Code, Reporting, Implications)
? Cant help you there.

5. Stop outgoing reports? (Console is always trying to call Apple... this is not good.)
Not sure

6. SSD or HD?
I imagine Mac SSD technology is the same as PC SSD, therefore its not easy to completely remove all files even after deleting. Using a USB with Tails will fix this issue.

7. Advanced OPSEC tuning and leading edge development? (Other Darknet forums, links or think tanks)
No Idea

8. Run an encrypted, Truecrypt Lynix partition for all of the deviant stuff, and run a nice and normal partition for the regular porn stuff. 
yes. Truecypt is cool. run a hidden parition.  But if your using Tails on a USB, then no need.

You should at least consider providing it as an option and let the user decide if they need to use it.

I only moderate the forums. I have no control over the design of the site. I was just giving my opinion... DPR monitors these threads, If he likes it I'm sure he'll implement it.

I think the best defense is good security practices.

* Always use PGP.
* Don't order to your house.
* Don't order more than 1 order to 1 drop.
* Wait to receive an order before making more orders
* Allow some time between when you expect the product to arrive, and when you pick it up (if possible)
* Only order any amount that you are prepared to be caught with.
* Don't open the mail straight away.
* Write return to sender on the mail.
* Have a plausible story to why your picking up the mail.
* NEVER talk to cops, always ask for a lawyer

Not all these will work for everyone, but you should at least have a plan in your head if the worst does happen

It may help if you mention what country this is for..

perhaps thats because you make useless posts like this one

I have removed Farbombers vendor tag until he decodes my message.

Fatbomber has linked me to his PGP on the old forums.

So far I have no reason to believe he is not who he says he is. If he can decrypt my PM I sent him, then he is, as far as we can verify, the real deal.

Can everyone please PM me with any accusations like this. We don't need to unnecessarily damage anyone's reputation

Is there currently a vendors forum on this new forum?

There is, if you have a vendor tag.

For those of you who haven't got their tag yet, Have you sent me a link to your PGP on the old forums? Or can you post my nick in the old forum on your account?

Your forum account on the old forums need to have evidence of you vending, it doesn't necessarily need a vendor tag, just old posts of you offering products ect will do..

If you cant satisfy either of these conditions, I'm afraid I cant verify you, you will need to wait for launch to see what DPR offers.
