Top darknet drug marketplace, Dream Market, is shutting down
- arthurcolle 8y agoAnother one bites the dust. Does anyone have any theories on the methodologies being used in these Operation Onymous/Bayonet/Shrouded Horizon to figure out who tor users are? I heard one theory related to 'traffic confirmation' attacks which DDOS a particular hidden service, and then basically flood the Tor network with 'LEO relays' which are then used to figure out the point of origin. https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20151201/07281232952/tor-devs-say-theyve-learned-lessons-carnegie-mellon-attack-worries-remain-that-theyre-outgunned-outmanned.shtml https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20151201/07281232952/tor-d... With the amount of busts happening these days, it is definitely a scary time for those brave enough to host hidden services that engage in illegal activity.
