And you have yourself to thank for starting this off topic mess.
I did some researching, and you come across as fear mongering. You talk about how it's safe to use the dark web, then you talk on the other side of your mouth and then imply that it isn't. You also say you've done all these drugs and support it, then you also go around trying to discourage it. You should see the irony in your own posts.
I don't need the dark web or even the clearnet. I never did. I've always had connections through people since I've been in this game, and I like to keep it that way.
The fact is every case I could find (a lot which weren't even verified) were aimed at vendors, dealers, people who run these sites or people purchasing ounces and pounds of whatever they're buying. That's probably because those buyers then turn it around and sell it for a profit, eg. they are effectively dealers themselves because no one's going to believe a pound of cocaine is for personal use. I think what InterestingFact was getting at was that the people who buy small, personal amounts are free from persecution, because the authority/FBI aren't going to waste their time and resources going after the small fish. Why do that when the big fish are still swimming free? There's still not one case I could find where someone bought a small amount and then got raided/caught. If not, post it.
