A little opsec tip for vendors and buyers...

For many of us, this is an obvious and paramount factor in OpSec. But given recent vendor busts, as well as the massive amount of new users the markets have seen recently, I wanted to make sure that absolutely everyone was aware of this:

  1. Keep non-dnm related usernames, emails, social networks, and aliases COMPLETELY separate from anything relating to your DNM accounts or activities.

  2. When using pgp, either use a fake email (one that is not yours and connects to nobody) OR use a secure email service such as sigaint (DNM only) on your pgp. Make sure the email name (ex: wolfid@sigaintexample.com) does not in any way trace back to your clearnet profiles

  3. If you must have any information connected to your DNM accounts, be sure that none of your information can be traced back to you. If you have ever used a username on the clear web, whether it be a neopets account or an email, you MUST NOT use it in any way connected to a DNM account. If you are using a username connected to the clearnet, stop now.

  4. And for fucks sake, vendors, wear at least two layers of gloves when packaging product. Your DNA and fingerprints are EVERYWHERE otherwise.

This is the top of the opsec barrel, but following these tips will help prevent you from being the next DEA agent's dumb-criminal Christmas story!

I would like to build on the DNA thing.

Hair net, dust mask, and two pairs of gloves are minimum. Long sleeve shirt too

I just have one of those shower rooms I can set on fire after I've scraped off all my loose DNA like the opening scene from Gattaca.

5 . If you don't already know this, stay away from the daknets for fucks sake.

Can I just ask a question as a lurker who wants to (eventually) try buying?

Does it make any difference if you use Tails from a DVD or USB drive? I'm currently reading the documentation and install procedures and I can't decide which option to take. I have a PC and a laptop, both of which are running Win 8.1 and have both USB ports and DVD drives.

Is one superior to the other?

Some youtubers are posting about the DNMs too and how to use them... fucking crazy.

Please always verify e-mails via Grams InfoDesk and also always encrypt your info with the vendors PGP-key.

I got a piece of hair that got stuck to tape inside a package from a very old reputable vendor. Very sloppy. I was shocked. That coulda put the vendor in prison if it got into the wrong hands. DNA evidence. Smh! Vendor has been well known since SR1 too, they must have hired a complete asshole to do their packaging.
