Title: Have we seen a SIGNED update
Post by: puddle7 on November 16, 2012, 09:12 am
Sorry, lost amongst the spam, I was looking for a SIGNED update from DPR saying all is well.  Sure, the site is up, but do we have an update, GPG signed, from DPR saying it's all good?

I agree with you on this. Was looking for any authenticated update from the (wo)man myself.
Would be nice though and instantly cure a lot of paranoia around here.

A good point was made that LE likes to take things down for about a week then ensnare ppl.  Everyone keep to GPG of all messages - especially addresses.  Always assume the site is compromised, and act accordingly.

look at the first post in the sticky "update" all updates were posted in the first post of the thread.

I think what Puddle is saying is that, while the original post was signed, none of the updates have been signed in the same manner.

It's a minor detail but, it would likely ease a few more rattled nerves.

Let's say LE beat the living hell out of DRP and got his key password.. what difference would it make?

A good point? I've been searching for any kind of evidence to back that up - it isn't true. That's not how Farmer's Market was taken down.

I get the feeling DPR is not in a 3rd world/asian county. If such a high profile figure gets nabbed, they won't be tortured. This isn't rodney king all cranked up, its a whole different ballgame. They would have  warrents, teams to raid, tens of thousands of gigabytes of data, etc. Nobody's getting beat, except possibly a bit of a strong arm by the pricks who do the initial patdown when you enter jail.

Now, if he's in china.. different story.

if this is a security problem for anyone then guess what, your security fucking sucks. at no point do you need to trust DPR or silk road to keep your anonymity intact.

money is, of course, another issue.

I don't think he's in one of 'those countries'

Pretty sure he's in Pacific/Oceania region.
