I would appreciate the opinion of a mod or senior:
I feel like a '60's movie asking again, "is it safe?"
I went back over the posts wherein the poster described quoted the email that stated the reason why TT was targeted and I am not really satisfied. I have a strong understanding of the technical "how" but I don't really understand "why" TT was targeted. I am a big fan of TT but with the uncertainty of "why" I fear there may be additional repercussions and am afraid to order right now.
Is it likely that TT's orders will be subject to increased seizure rates or customers themselves be scrutinized so as to discourage them from ordering?
My plan for now is to wait a couple of weeks before ordering to see how consistently others receive but an official opinion of TT's state of affairs would be appreciated if possible.
thanks again

I don't think anyone here can factually state precisely why TTM was "targeted". In fact, I'm not certain that they were per se, but that's just semantics. From a purely domain perspective, I went into some depth about this in an earlier post, but as a quick refresher, their domain was blocked by Enom, the end registrar of the old domain name (registered through Anonymous Speech, an Enon reseller), immediately following a server migration by TTM's host, which is also Anonymous Speech. As to the "why", Enom was specifically noted by Legit Script two months ago on their website as being "proactively compliant" in implementing a voluntary program to identify and weed out online pharmacies that are, in Legit Script's definition, "illegitimate", from their portfolio. Given the timing of the domain being blocked by Enom, and in light of their documented compliance effort to "clean up" their portfolio, so to speak, my presumption is that some sort of internal monitoring alert was tripped when they changed their DNS setting during the server migration. Enom is the world's single largest domain registrar, or at least routinely battles it out with GoDaddy for such honors, and as a result, there is smply no way for them to manually audit every domain in their vast portfolio. Since TTM has been around for a period of years, this may have been their first server migration via Anonymous Speech since Enom implemented their internal monitoring and "online pharmacy purge" policy, and they were unfortunately identified via some internal monitoring method, likely an automated, keyword based system.
All of the above is purely conjecture on my part, but is my best educated guess, based upon the facts in evidence and what I know to be going on in the IT world where IOP's are concerned. This theory also does NOT take into account any LE monitoring and interdiction efforts, if any at all, that TTM may have been subject to, or maybe be subject to in the future. Hope that helps provide some additional insight.
