Hello all as some of you maybe aware that in the last 3 days the Admins of Alphabays personal information has been put out into the world . I personally don't condone these acts and find them horrible for the community .
But we are a community and we need to come together (subbreddit mods or not ) to figure out if we as a whole are safe using Alpha bay. After reading vices article about doxers getting paid to not to release info & now this and the threats of there family members info being released (which has already happened/ threats of releasing a few bugs they also have (that could or could not hurt us users as a whole) . Also the fact that there was zero mention about the chaos going on this subreddit to warn people . I dont see in big red mods or past mods have been doxed in the active warning links (which begs the question if these sub mods are here for us or them ). With big muscles ripping people off left and right ,the shadiness of ab as a whole /lack of warning of possible danger .
Curious to see what the community thinks about all of this & what we can do among ourselves?
(i would kindly like to ask that all submods stay out of this convo and market heads and let us the people determine our own path on this conversation )
One of our former mods spent sometime on this (post histories) and came to the determination that this is nothing more than a drama shit show produced by OP. We agree. See his comments below.
I have been here long enough to know one thing for sure there is a cycle about AB DOX. If they had any value someone would have gotten that value a year ago. We are done with it. Nobody gives a fuck. It is none of anyone's concern. Encrypt your shit.
For the record I think AB sucks. I hate everything about it. Fucking search has more options than a fucking missile. Busier than fucking AMAZON. So fuck them. That said I am also not going to allow some child to spread bullshit.
