Title: THE OLD CLEARNET SITE IS UP, THS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED GOOD
Post by: doctor on January 28, 2012, 01:31 am
Hey, the old  clearnet site http://silkroadmarket.org/ is still up! I'm guessing that is good...

just conjecture out of thin air on my part, but if it was a federal takedown, that site would be dead, if it was silk just disappearing and never being heard from again, this forum would be dead.

Thank you for the info doctor,

I actually didn't know there was an easy way to the SR, I always use the .onion.

Why does it generate discussion on the bitcointalk forum instead that in this one? :S

It's just a site that says "this is not thesilk road, but you are close" an lead to the gawker article, then on day the servers went down and they posted that message. never been updated again.

it pointed to bitcoin forums because at the time the forums were just hosted on the same server.

Dude, we all connect through tor. The only people that would connect directly to it are people who link there from reddit and barely know what PGP or bitcoin is.
