I say: The proof points towards Alphabay getting other markets DOS'd. They went offline and came back to have excuse of them being 'attacked' too. Obviously paid deepdopweb to shill for them as posted on their site and told about in the other post. Now they are one of the few markets with reliable up time and get the business even if everyone does hate em'. They might not even had to have paid for the attack, they're Russian carders that run a large darknet market so I think the odds of them owning a botnet themselves is quite high.
Fuck man, all this drama. I just wanna buy drugs and have everyone get along. Is that to much to ask?
