Can the new Silk Road 2.0 [SR2] site be taken down as easily as the previous incarnation?

"There is only one person in the world that knows who [my second in command] "Defcon" is--me. So unless the feds have me they can never take down the Road, because as soon as I am missing he knows to just move servers and hit the killswitch on my access. Just think how much the FBI will be squirming in their seats and red-faced again if they could arrest the Dread Pirate Roberts and the Road continues to function in their face."

~ Dread Pirate Roberts 2.0 [SR2]

I dunno, seems like it wouldn't be too hard as I've heard he's "cooperating". They probably do know who Defcon is.

I think the feds already have it and its a honeypot.
