Can you pay for assassinations in bitcoins?

Can you pay for assassinations in bitcoins?

Apparently yes; there is a page on a tor directory linking to this exact service. I can't say if it is legit or not but it is out there.

So I messed around with Tor a few days ago and checked out silk road and a few directory services to see what the commotion was all about. Silk road seems pretty straightforward; porn (no underage stuff advertised from what I could see) , random guns, drugs etc for sale. Some morally questionable shit here and there but nothing truly repugnant. The Tor directory and the 'hidden wiki' however...

Let's put it this way: When a page starts with a links category and a subheading 'Over Age', you know there is something fucked up further down the page. What surprised me is even though Tor is anonymous or whatever, is how brazen the directory and 'hidden wiki' listings for child porn were. Just sitting there like it was no big deal.

Thus ended my journey into the underwebs. I'm not an infojunkie or in need of drugs or fucked up porn so I guess I can live with my surface web.

deep web bro

Yeah, but LSD is awesome!

Talk about Drugs in HD. Wow.

The fact that you have to give them your address is hilarious and completely against their so-called anonymity. If the site is compromised, someone could listen-in and monitor all the shipping addresses. I'm surprised they dont have a network of people doing sneakernet style exchanges instead.

Just a short note to say I've been informed because I linked Silk Road's URL (which is available hot linked in the article) I have been informed starting Tuesday I will be banned for a month.

since when people get upcoming ban notifications..?

edit: double post!

I was told it was because they missed the thread the first time around and because I've been a consistently good poster. In any case, I should add that you didn't quote (probably because you didn't see it) that the ban has been reduced to a week which is MUCH better.

TOR is easy to configure, be warned though most sites are full of child pornography, theres alot of drug shops. Ive seen one assasination site but it was more of a poll on who people would want killed so it looked like BS to me.

Loads of downloadable content for bomb making and survival/military training guides.

Deep web is scary but awesome at the same time, you feel dirty after your first time there!

It is what it is, not your fault.

Is there a list of the sites when you use TOR? Or did you just come across them? I'm not even interested in buying anything but I'm kinda curious to check some of those sites out(not if they have child porn though, uh) just to see a side of the internet(or even the world) I've never seen before.

This stuff is old news. I read on another forum, where people actually went onto those deep web/dark web websites that there was child porn where old men were screwing headliess children and other screwed up stuff like that. Apparantely there were also videos of human vs animal fights. Don't know if its all true.

I think it's probably because the TOS changed with regards to drug speech rather than 'they didn't see it.'

Perhaps they should just delete the thread if they are so concerned with google.

There are tor-wikis and directories you can access; and I'm sure there is a lot of hidden stuff beyond even that. It honestly isn't interesting outside of a few minutes of novelty.

Not clued up on all of this, but I guess it stands to reason that it wouldn't be human trafficking or child pornography that made the authorities shit their pants trying to shut this kind of thing down. Enjoyment and free enterprise must be stamped out, god-damnit.

as a former sociology major, this shit is endlessly interesting
