With the darknets continuing to grow, it will be inevitable of more raids and the media reporting on such things. I think one thing that could show that we aren't a bunch of scummy fucks is removing weapons, anything related to fraud and all the hacked account listings. If you're into that I'm not going to judge but that's just giving LE more of a reason to take these sites down and even though more people are accepting these markets as a good place to get drugs, the majority of the population is stupid and will believe what the media is saying. That's just my suggestion and would like to hear more thoughts on this
I see where you are coming from and I somewhat agree. I would love to see a market that deals exclusively with substances. Not because I want to advocate censorship, but because these things are designed to damage others. People don't buy weapons to point them at themselves. Skimming equipment and stolen cards/accounts hurt others as well. If given the choice, I would rather not associate myself with these businesses.
