My Apologies if this has been answered somwhere. I did a search and only came up with a man from Massachusetts who purchased a firearm and suppressor from (I believe) someone he messaged.
So the question specifically is: has anyone ever been arrested for making a drug purchase from an existing dark net market?
If so, were they taking the usual precautions (PGP, etc)? Or not enough precautions?
I haven't been doing this long myself but I use Tails installed with an encrypted persistent volume with a reasonably secure password (12 characters with upper-case, lower-case, numeric, and symbols).
I know someone else who uses Windows only but with a Tor browser since SR1 and he has yet to be arrested. He says I'm too cautious, that only vendors need to take it to the lengths I do but hey, I've always been a little paranoid.. :)
Thanks in advance for any info!
No, this is like a LARP but with drugs and crime, non of this is real... unless you ate the red pill.
