Hansa Marketplace got seized because the 2 admins were also running a pirated e-books store on the clearnet. Lul.to was taken down by the German police a day after (June 21) the admins were captured. Operation Bayonet went forward and now you know what's going on.
"By the announcement, the market’s new owners had collected identifying information on more than 10,000 users. Domestic suspects will be dealt with internally and international suspects will be handled by Europol. The Hansa Market’s new landing page depicts a sinking version of the Hansa Market ship."

Was worried about double posting there lol.. Steemit's been acting mega glitchy lately for me. Hmm :P
Glitchy how?
@avilsd, do you think that is how they caughts them?
@avilsd just saw your YouTube post on this but i don't think that this is what got hansa market closed, since there were and still are some tor exit nodes compromised in Israel since early last year
Bloody Hell Bernard. The swine-dog powers that be would have you believe that they are all clever-bonces who've got some super-powered 17 year old nerdbot who's acne has an IQ of 165 breaking the crypto-locks of Tor, but in reality, they pinched the admins because some of them were moonlightling as second hand book pests.
Just goes to show, if you are some darknet king-pirate, you've got to just stay in your basement and never come on the radar of the orbital mind-control bastards. Like that bloke who played specky book-schrodinger, Harold Finch in Person of Interest. And preferably walk with a limp so you won't get clamped when you park in disabled spots.
Agreed. All smoke and mirrors on the part of the controllers
Shane Dawson made a youtube video about the dark web recently, I was pissed that he made 9 million subs (who are mostly children/teens) aware of these market places. Kids these days already know too much as it is from social media. They're are not smart enough to go on these websites safely and do not understand the repercussions that can go along side getting involved with illicit web activity.
BUT MEEEEEEEG, drugs are for kids, mmkay?
This(
) might explain why hes turning kids on to the deep web. This video was removed from youtube. Good thing it was saved.The glitch will soon stop, just that a lot of peolple are jumping ship from facebook to steemit.lol
I'm excited about the platform's growth!
That sound so interesting and i believe that is the best way to cut those suspect
Came from your most recent Youtube video, crazy informative appreciate it bro.
ok
That is funny as hell
Great post avilsd, thanks for sharing. Upvoted.
Dark days for the dark markets are upon them..
They were the GOATS, Hansa will not be forgotten...
Maybe Zion market will be the next Hansa. I think from now on it will be more difficult to operate a darknet market for a longer time. Didn't even know the ebook and audiobook site of the Hansa guys.
What kind of books did they have? Juicy stuff? Because there are a lot of sites with pirated stuff on the clearnet.
I doubt it, the next big market HAS TO BE decentralized!
