>creates a free market >gets life in prison without parole
Why was there no controversy? Why has Dread Pirate Roberts not become a folk hero? Why have activists not banded together to try and reverse this absurd sentence?
He was a Libertarian, but he was also a tech-utopian and a young man with his whole life ahead of him. People from all over the political spectrum should be all over this. Silence.
Carson Stewart
literally who
Ryder Diaz
He's a fucking white male, nobody gives a fuc. Maybe next time he'll consider making a market only for white people.
Kayden Sanchez
I guess they keep you distracted with "SJWs" so you don't accidentally form an actual political opposition. Anyways, keep playing into their manufactured antisemitism so you can discredit all right wing resistance.
Lucas Myers
tell me who the fuck he is you mongoloid
Eli Powell
>OP >filename >image
Angel Price
atleast link me a wikipedia article you fuck
Jose Campbell
>>creates a free market >>gets life in prison without parole
False.
He got life in prison without parole for murder/conspiracy to murder.
Jack Jenkins
>created the Silk Road, a darknet site >drugs, CP, and weapons for sale >lasted a good 3-4 years >got caught because he used a clearnet email at the beginning
Cameron Kelly
the government hates when someone makes money without them making a cut.
Samuel Ramirez
so hes a retarded degenerate. got it
Jeremiah Baker
Mostly bogus because there was no way to prove it and some of the "evidence" was sealed
Austin Garcia
Yep pretty much
Angel Hughes
Fuck the absolute state of poles these days is incredibly disgusting.
Grayson Myers
the murder charges were slander and altogether dropped
Michael Flores
The Silk Road was connected to so much controversy (hard drugs, money laundering etc.) that nobody will stand up in its or its founders defense.
I see where youre coming from though.
Ayden Lee
why the fuck would i care about drugs, CHILD PORNOGRAPHY, or weapons? this fucking retard deserves the death penalty
Jose Richardson
See where I said that
Jacob Watson
>shitty opsec lmao
Oliver Morgan
Agree He could have done so much with his intelligence instead he created a site catering to pedos and mobsters
Blake Jones
None of which he dealt in. He created a free market when nobody else would. You cannot expect him to regulate it alone.
It was mostly mail order drugs which is a mostly victimless crime that cuts the gangsters out of the producer/customer relationship
Hudson Reed
This coming from a pole. Where child porn is rampant. You should care because maybe the CIA will steal your laptop one day and we can look at all the sites you go to. Whatever commie shill. libertarians shouldn't be infringed. No one should have the right to use stolen evidence against anyone.
Anthony Peterson
Anything against government is good.
He should have been far more careful. His is a lesson for others who will carry the torch. Eventually, the government will be powerless to stop the trade of illegal goods.
Jeremiah Mitchell
What are illegal goods? If they needed to be illegal they wouldn't have 'good' in the name
Asher Mitchell
He was profiting from the drug trade, USA doesn't like competition. If the CIA was invested in taxis for some retarded reason you would see all of uber in prison in about the same amount of time.
Luke Thomas
It doesn't matter how much CP was on there There were a shit ton of guns on there but it was mostly drugs
Brody Sullivan
Why is your flag upside down?
Joshua Thomas
>"I am creating an economic simulation to give people a first-hand experience of what it would be like to live in a world without the systemic use of force."
A website that facilitates murder for hire. BAKA.
Oliver Gutierrez
Come on you are just making poles look even dumber
Juan Sullivan
Trips of truth
Thomas Bennett
his website trafficked all sorts of degenerate shit yet Sup Forums will support him because...?
Andrew Martinez
Drop the pirate flag you fag.
Brody Taylor
literally fake news
Hunter Williams
You can’t be a folk hero when people remember you. Give him 20 years.
Isaac Campbell
>yet Sup Forums will support him because...? Because Sup Forums loves chaos and illegal things. nu/pol/ isn't Sup Forums, it's the JIDF.
Hunter Hernandez
everyone in this thread shilling about MURDER FOR HIRE and CHILD PORNOGRAPHY have probably never even used silk road before. There was no cp for sale and there wasnt even any assasins on there. as far as I remember they even removed the weapons listings . also 99% of deepweb hitmen are fucking pathetic larpers
Aiden Lewis
He never hosted CP or hitmen.
Hudson Rogers
Ulbricht was charged with money laundering, computer hacking, conspiracy to traffic narcotics,[24][28] and procuring murder.[25] The charge of procuring murder was removed from the indictment[29] _______ I didn't know that. :P
Luke Hill
Silkroad:
Dude hired hits on people's heads due to money reasons and most were ciaNiggers baiting him along.
Also he was caught by a black dude combing google search results and found that the silkroad owner discussed the set-up of his forum prior to opening it and gave out his email with his real name in it, for contact information.
What did him in was trying to get people killed.
Doubtful if he didnt, he'd still be free today though.
Owner of Alphabay which shut down recently, the owner hung himself in jail.
Im not into the scene anymore since i find it highly unsafe now in some aspects and have friends outside the internet now. I was around the markets from 2011-2016.
It was easier to use trust people through email who listed their products but this guy made an amazon version of it and started a domino effect.
Drug dealing online will never go away. Markets might however one day be gone, but email to email communications are safer if you find the right person and trust the person.
Have a nice day gents
Blake Sanders
>cucking funt that gave him the sentence
Luke Miller
>Dropped the weapons section Nigger you're fucking dumb. Thousands of weapons on there until the site closed >CP Literally hundreds of titles to choose from
Angel Kelly
Drugs should be legal. People arguing that the presence of bad transactions mars the presence of good transactions are retarded. Build some nuance into your brains and come back to individual responsibility, please.
Cooper Howard
Was never cheese pizza I think you could of bought weapon parts but not full weapons.
My favorite novelty item on there was wi-fi jammers for $200, shit was funny asf
Michael Wright
"degeneracy" is a thought police buzzword. Sup Forums will never be successfully reprogrammed by groupthink authoritarians. as hard as they try it is a website based on freedom and anonymity. what's that phrase? barking up the wrong tree?
Jaxson Williams
you're confusing 4chans size with chaos Sup Forums is against degeneracy and criminals like DPR
Nicholas Lopez
You suddenly realize:
The government started hunting him down the moment he started selling aids medicine to africans.
Brody Moore
What do you think his clients sold under the erotica section? Dumbass Pic related
Oliver Green
He was charged with neither.
Hacking, Money Laundring and Drug dealing were the things that earned him his sentence.
Juan Richardson
He got caught because he had a youtube channel where he talked about political shit that tied him to the Dread Pirate account.
Also the silkroad was mainly drugs being sold., almost 90% of sales were just weed.
The whole thing is overblown.
Do you think Amazon felt threatened? Perhaps they paid for the investigation?
James Perry
See
Gabriel White
I know that most sales were drugs. It doesn't matter how little pedo shit he allowed to be put up
Juan Collins
source?
Connor King
Wrong faggot see this He usedaclearnet email on a forum that's how they found him
Cameron Gomez
So what you are saying is basically: Darknet is safer than the open net?
Owen Williams
Do you even know where you are, newfag?
Ryder Hall
It wasn't cheese pizza you fucking god damn retard.
I was on the fucking website when it opened. It was not cheese pizza and you're a lying sack of shit who is clueless on the whole subject anyways.
Erotica legit sold sex toys and sex items.
God damn Sup Forums is fucking god damn stupid.
Even other markets had Joke items being sold
1 fucker sold bong water other's sold fucking animal shit in boxes etc.
You didnt need to pay to be a vendor on silkroad back then and could make a vendor account and make product listings.
Also if you think it's child erotica, why is there only 164 listings you fucking stupid ass person.
164 listings is nothing and it was not cheese pizza, there's been no darknet drug site that's sold cheese pizza as it draws wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too much attention from the feds.
You weren't there. So fuck off with your smearing shill.
Mason Cox
Back then it was. But now no
Elijah Watson
CP was strictly not allowed on SR. >nu/pol/ is against degeneracy and criminals like DPR Oldschool Sup Forums, /new/, and /n/ don't mind at all. /storm/ can GTFO
Samuel Thomas
Lol i was on it to retard >durr hurr illegal to buy sex toys Kys lying cunt
Leo Davis
Also do you really think they wouldnt of charged him for operating a cheese pizza network for having that shit on there?
He was charged for everything on the site he had, but O MY THE CHEESE PIZZA YOU CLAIM THEY MAGICALLY DECIDED TO WIPE IT AWAY.
Watch the fucking documentary. You legit piss me off, trying to smear some dude by claiming he also operated a cheese pizza network.
He would of been charged if it was true.
Also check the court documents and police reports. Not 1 word of cheese pizza on the site.
Fucking uneducated fucker. Hope your mother gets raped by a pack of wild niggers
Josiah Walker
Underrated
Eli Young
kek
Tyler Thomas
Dude ikr.
Silk road was professional.
There was a strict no child porn rule.
Sup Forums is full of new fags and underage kids who dont know wtf they are talking about, let alone even been on tor.
YES PEOPLE SEEL JOKE ITEMS ON THE DARKNET ASWELL.
Not everything is illegal on these markets you fucking faggot ass liar who claimed there's cp
Camden Rogers
No he didn't retard He got a plea deal which was sealed
Ethan Hill
This guy has it right. There was no CP on silk road.
Owen Morales
There was never any child porn.
Adam Gutierrez
CIA nigger detected What was in the sealed plea deal?
Nathaniel Nguyen
I can't think of any publicly open DNM where CP has ever been allowed. Allowing CP basically guarantees you'll have government and cops shutting your shit down lightning fast.
Thankfully, we have Lysergi and the Indole Shop and others. I get everything I want these days on the clearnet. Even a-PHP.
Fuck the police. Maybe they should go bust people who actually hurt society and leave us alone.
Jack Kelly
Not a cia Nigger, i just know quite abit about the markets because i was quite active within the areas.
If i had to guess the plea deal it was in aiding to help provide information and corporation with the police to help track down some of his other members who had crimes just as bad if not worse than Robert himself.
That's the one thing ill say is, Robert did help get some of his other buddies busted.
Think whatever you wanna think mate, i just hate you faggots who try and speak on this subject pulling shit out of your ass that's false.
Mason Hughes
that and heavy weaponry. don't buy guns on the darknet, kids! they probably won't let you keep it.
Eli James
cia/dea didn’t like competition in the drug trade and a safe way for drugs to be sold. The Fed sure as shit didn’t like bitcoin and silk road is what gave it real value. Bad goyim have to be made an example out of so the other cattle don’t think about stepping out of line. The Zog really doesn’t like guys outside their circle making millions and not paying taxes also. Sup Forums what do you guys think of linkedIn? Is it a trap and a way to get doxxed? I used it for job hunting but now that I’ve found a good job i don’t want people to be able to find where i work from a simple google search.
Zachary Cruz
>What was in the sealed plea deal? Evidence against others involved, thus why it was sealed. That's how the government does things. They threaten you with horrors in prison to get you to rat on others. Why do you think the state allows prison rape and shit? It's used as a weapon of fear.
Andrew Flores
Bumping for discussion about something other than trannies/drag queens/coffee makers.
Juan Lopez
It's pretty bad today.
Brody Parker
Jeez dude, chill out. Ur aUtIsM iS sHoWiNg
Michael Allen
you fuckers are so lucky for that variety. that shit costs way too much down here so we buy the shittier versions which is a mix of MDMA + caffeine.
Ayden Wood
>I made an auction/intermediary exchange service in the dark web for the purposes of profiting from the exchange of narcotics >"Its all for freedom guys!"
Joseph Green
Sup Forums is a bunch of early 20's mooks who like to fuck shit up in order to make up for their miserable lives. Everyone fucking knows this, wtf are you even talking about?
Asher Jenkins
Usually I prefer it during midnight hours.
The US is shit-tier for drugs outside of meth my friend. Those are from Europe. Most good drugs(stims and psychedelics) are. None of these are mine. They're from a site where people post their collections. There's a collection hobby(gotta catch em all) within the RC/drug community. Here's some lucky shit who managed to get the Magic Half Dozen.
Carter James
Fucking indonesia, so shameful to have you as a neighbor you fucking cunt
Matthew Perry
>I cut out the middleman niggers/criminals and made exchanging goods convenient
DRUGS ARE ILLEGAL GUYS AND ANYTHING ILLEGAL IS BAD
THATS WHAT THE GOV SAYS AND ANYTHING THE GOV SAYS IS FACT
