Sr 2.0

[headbanger]

The second generation of the road was recently busted. The American perp was some guy in his 20's somewhere in TX. There were some other guys in England too.

Plenty of info out there about it.

Looks like an employment opportunity has just become available. SR 3.0

Total anonymity on any web, dark or otherwise, seems a little far-fetched when you factor in the resources big brother has available to him. I bet that 20-something kid is in a jail cell right now scared to death, phased and stunned, contemplating the fact that he may be a middle-aged man before he sees daylight again.

Surely he knew this day was coming...hate it for him.......

Man, that sure didn't take long.....shuttered hundreds of domains and seized $1 million in BTC.

def sucks for the SR2 people but theres still lots of deep web "search engines"

There are actually some smaller boards like SR 2.0 still operating. Small potatoes though.

Here's the SR story along with the affidavit.Pretty interesting read especially shows how much time and effort was spent building a case against this guy.

Ha, the kid was an idiot. He used the same email (which had his full name in it) for all his social media accounts.

He posted screencaps of his bitcoin wallet and publicly bragged about what he was doing. I'm sure it wasn't too hard to bring him down.

& To the person asking about Agora.

I'd give it some time before getting on there. It's kinda odd that they would leave the two biggest markets on the darknet alone.

It might be okay to use but I find it hard to believe it got out untouched.

Just speculation. Only time will tell.

Im looking into Agora the last couple of days also. First of all: I'm schocked. Guns, kiddyporn, id-cards, driver licenses and with regard to the drugs... Well... You can imagine. Pure uncut bolivian cocaine, black tar heroin and every single pill ever made. It's like a candyshop. However, I'm to scared to buy. Heard a lot of sellers are police. Btw. Seems like SR 3.0 is a FDA/FBI website now

I think those guys are foolish, you can hide in plain site on the web and use smart aids like a public pc, public inet, etc. There are so few onion sites to even check they could fucking manually search it find them. I will never understand the thought on that.

I find it interesting that it took an "undercover" type real person to bring SR2 down.  The encryption is obviously very robust.
