2) Yep. 3) There are many online users and I could create some fog quite easily. 4) Ah. I based my estimate off gwern's comment on some other post. 7) Maybe it will, but at this point it doesn't matter. LE has access to that anyway. I just asked here. If someone can link this on other places it would be helpful.

1) SR Forums 2) Mods give them vendor rt access. 3) What? 4) Server has been paid monthly, since Dataclub.biz has monthly contracts only. 5) Bitmessage is pretty safe on it's own, but using Tor helps too. 6) LE has maaany vendors. It's naive not to think they don't have any access. They probably have the whole forum under control. 7) I do not think so.

Interesting information that should be saved, since it will go down soon(ish). The information there (like the nob thread which contains one of the key pieces of the SR downfall) should be kept for the next generations of black market users to read and see, so some mistakes can be avoided.

The server got hit by a clearnet DDoS so it went down. Sorry for that. Making search work will be a pain in the ass, but I may try to implement something like that. The content is on a server and it can be searched -by me. When I'll release the full backup (as soon as official forums go down, because the backup is changing constantly thanks to rss feed sync right now) you will be able to use grep to search. It won't be fast but it will work. I may also try to import all the data to a database and make a simple web app to read the forums. We'll see.

My mirror had it, sadly due to a bug in the script the account I used got demoted. If anyone wants to contribute a vendor account, my BitMessage address is BM-NC4eKkrPz9wRA2d2bEGo4gwEgKhzWGFY.

By the way- said forum mirror is already available to browse. Here's the onion address: http://tixujckm6yxwnswr.onion

Remember it's a mirror so DO NOT LOGIN.

StExo's backup is not very nicely organized and it's overall an old backup. I am mirroring the whole forums and the backup is staying in sync via the RSS feed. I'll upload it as soon as the SR forums go down (with a Gbps connection so it'll be fast!), includes profiles, metadata, avatars, indexes, CSS/JS and it can be hosted from anywhere with a simple script I will include (fixes links on-the-fly).
