Its happening....

Ross was the first of his kind in many respects. You can argue he was a visionary or a crime boss that orders hits, either way he was the first to be publicly tried and convicted for RUNNING a website, nothing more nothing less. Looks like this trend is continuing into clear-net sites. Wonder whose next?

Does the irony strike anyone that trafficking humans yields 13 months, but trafficking drugs yields 20 years?!? To me that really speaks volumes about government priorities. In both cases it seems more about stealing/confiscating the money than protecting the population.

Edit: well god damn. My first reddit gold! Thank you kind friend!

$1 B went through his market, only a website like ebay is only a website.

If Ross is indeed DPR, he made money from the selling of illegal products. To claim he was arrested for running a website is churlish.
