I'm scared of all this stuff. I can be plenty depraved on the regular tubes, thank you very much. No need to go any deeper.
And I have no idea what this means.
Oh my. The UN should regulate this stuff or something!
Tails is an operating system based in Linux that can run off a flash drive that doesn't store anything on your computer. You can boot it from the flash drive on any PC before it loads into the OS. It runs in RAM, not on a hard drive. When you log off or shut down the Tails session, it clears the session data from the RAM. It uses the Tor network which helps mask your IP. You go through several 'hops' to connect. If you are in Omaha, Nebraska, it looks like you are in Austria or any other country to any website or network. You can use Tor within your OS (on Mac, PC, or Linux) too. Tails just adds another layer of anonymity because it runs off a flash drive.And I have no idea what this means.
It's so you can buy drugs.
Just move to a city.It's so you can buy drugs.
You're effed dude. The cyberpolice probably already backtraced it.Just heard about this and gave it a look yesterday at home...
I'll take the regular interwebs.
The purpose of its being seems to be based in web anonymity, and all the things you'd want it for. Which, speaking generally, are probably leaning towards devious intent. Performance wise, it's very slow too. This is because of how they're keeping your activity anonymous. Your requests/receipts jump tens/hundreds of times around the world to shield your activity. It was interesting to see the underbelly of the internet, but I'm enough entertained above ground. I don't need drugs/guns/someone offed/match fixing requests. All of which are there.
Tor has a page saying who it is useful for:https://www.torproject.org/about/torusers.html.enBasically for those extremely worried about privacy or who have the absolute need to have their online activities be untraceable (i.e. foreign operatives, for example.) For "normal" people, basically for doing things that would get you in trouble if you did them on the normal web. I've logged on only to kinda see what was available, but didn't really want to click on much of what I found, some of which was pretty out there.
I can understand this point of view, but we really don't know the full background behind those situations, or whether or not he was phased by them.
You can read his chat logs where he discussed the hits and aftermath online. He 100% believed he had 5 people killed.I can understand this point of view, but we really don't know the full background behind those situations, or whether or not he was phased by them.
Life in prison to a guy that young just seems so brutally unfair. I think most of it is just an attempt to send a message to dissuade future market owners. Obviously won't work, such a massive waste of resources.
Agree with you - that part makes it seem not as crazy for him to get life.You can read his chat logs where he discussed the hits and aftermath online. He 100% believed he had 5 people killed.I can understand this point of view, but we really don't know the full background behind those situations, or whether or not he was phased by them.

This. WTF is wrong with some of you. I know it's cool to yell 'victimless crime' or 'prison industrial complex' whenever drug offenses are prosecuted but this is different.
I didn't know he did murder for hire. So my mistake on that.
Any? That's quite a statement.
I'm quite a person.
Of course there is a way to prove things like this. They had his laptop and they had admin access after they took it from him and he had logged in as his superuser name. Just like this site knows the ip adress of people using screennames and can put 2+2 together on alias usage and shared accounts, I would bet the techies at the FBI can handle things of that nature. You would be better served saying that they entrapped him with the murder for hire parts then to say that he was an innocent person. Read the part of the story where he tries to get a Hells Angle leader (or so he thinks) to kill multiple people and you might change that story. Don't forget that he paid them with bitcoins, which are totally traceable.
So you don't think anyone deserves live without parole? How about a 31-year old rapist/serial killer with 20 victims and no remorse?
Are any of you actually reading the articles of what he did, or are you just following the narrative. I posted a link in here with multiple emails of him paying to have people killed who he felt did him wrong.
Do those 20 victims get the possibility of not having ever been raped/murdered in the future? Otherwise there's no reason for this hypothetical guy to ever have the possibility of parole.
You would think he would have been charged with such a crime then.
However, the defense struggled throughout the trial to come up with alternative Dread Pirate Roberts, or DPRs — especially as the journal entries and chat logs found on Ulbricht's laptop (in which he refers to Silk Road as a "criminal enterprise") continue to incriminate him.
