    So long as you’re tech-savvy it’s not hard at all to make a safe, secure purchase (or so I’ve heard).

        Ehhhh, mental outlaw made a video on just that topic a few hours ago.

        TLDW: people didn’t update packages for illegal tings, glowys rolled up.

          Yup. My takeaway from that video is:

          1. Don’t do illegal stuff
          2. If you do illegal stuff, don’t get chatty about it

          The more packets they have to work with, the more likely they can track you down.

          So if you’re going to buy illegal stuff, make sure the website is as simple as possible (so less packets flying around for things like images) and keep the transaction short.
