So I happened to see a listing for SR t-shirts and got the thinking..
Would wearing this shirt out in public be the equivalent of an undercover LE wearing an "I'm an undercover"
shirt?
Just seems ironic that with all the tor, BTC, PGP, and trying to stay as anonymous as possible, one would conjure such an idea.
Not that I'm trying to slam this vendor.
I'm just high and my thoughts are....well you know....
-
lol really? mind linking the page :)
For probably 99.9% of the public and police will have no idea what it means but could be interesting.
-
I had the same thought. I wanted to buy a silk road shirt or a bitcoin shirt or something, but I know that's a bad idea. If you wanna stay safe, dress and act like a square. No "legalize it" shirts or dreadlocks or anything like that. Be as nerdy and white as possible and live a normal, upstanding life otherwise. That's my philosophy anyway.

You know how your girlfriend has special outfits that she only wears behind closed doors when she is REALLY happy with the way you've been acting lately?
Not everything you like and own is worn in public.... come to think of it.. not everything you own and like is something other people even want to see ON you (or me :P )
-
I believe the T-shirt just has Silkroad's Camel logo and no words. Only if someone knew that the Camel was Silkroad's logo, then would the user be identified.

Def. would not be worth even the slightest risk, in my opinion..
-
I want one!
Seriously. This is being a little over paranoid. Maybe if the shirt said "I BUY METH ONLINE, YOU CAN TOO @ http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/" MAYBE it would cause some concern. A camel logo? No one cares, or will notice.
This thread: Because when you think camels, you think 'Anonymous online marketplace where you can get your DOC delivered right to your door no matter where you're at in the world."
:D
I know I come across as dickish, but the whole paranoia around this place, whilst understandable, is un-needed. This place is gonna be big, in my opinion. Like, realll big. The more advertising the better. IMO.

I regret to not go to the Federal police station wearing this shirt to get my new passport.

Uhhh the whole paranoia I think is needed, a healthy dose will keep you on your toes and keep you from
doing well...unnecessary shit..
Would you want SR to be big? Like real big?
I would rather it be more exclusive, get on some fight club type shit..
First rule of SR, you don't talk about SR..
but that will never happen, I might as well go order a T-shirt...

Why risk it?

"...But Silk Road was never meant to be private and exclusive. It is meant to grow into a force to be reckoned with that can challenge the powers that be and at last give people the option to choose freedom over tyranny..." ~ DPR 'State of the Road Address'
My man, you are thinking small. Way small. Think of the sway ebay holds over the internet market. Now, replace ebay with SR.
Don't think of it as fight club, think of it as a global revolution against the tyrannical governments who suppress our voices, needs, wants, and concerns in order to make a buck.

Fuck that. If the silk road gets too big it WILL be shut down.

I think you're getting a lil ahead of yourself.. "global revolution against tyrannical governments???"
Fundamentally we're on the same page, but your Che resistance freedom fighter mentality is just a tab bit
too much.
-
A little? Wow, WAY ahead of myself. Buuuut,
I firmly believe that if the SR keeps growing as it is, and gaining support and funds (DPR was diving out 1000's of dollars in prizes for 2 days straight) it WILL be a force to be reckoned with.
Some people only ever see the negative. Where theres a will, theres a way.
-
Its not negativity, I would like nothing more than longevity for SR.
But when you start talking about revolutions and freedom fighting shit...
You're talking about governments and LE that take down people like Pablo Escobar,
infiltrate terrorist organizations, invade countries and topple governments.
Whatever though, everyone is entitled to their own opinions. More the power to you,
Where there's a will there's a way..
In my opinion,
The first rule of SR: You don't talk about SR.
-
Well, fuck it, to each their own, eh? I don't blab about the place on FB and whatnot, I just think that if it continues growing, and the proper precautions are taken, it could be a very successful market.
-
I'd get one.
I wouldn't wear it every where, but festivals and shit i think it'd be a good conversation starter haha

Wearing an SR shirt is a VERY BAD idea. This goes against keeping a low profile. You kids who want to wear this shirt need to realize what you're involved in is not a joke and should learn to keep your mouths shut. "oh I'll buy one, lol" yeah real funny. You think it will give you cool points? Yeah tell your cell mate how cool it was when you wore that shirt. People who wear this shirt are the same people who have big mouths and brag to everyone about what they are doing. LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS, SHUT THE FUCK UP! Quit bragging, quit telling groups of people at parties.
Think about it, you're in public telling everybody who sees you, "I BUY DRUGS ONLINE" What happens IF a cop sees you? What IF you get pulled over wearing it? Pretty sure you'll become a "person of interest" WTF, why not just go turn yourself in now?
YOU MUST ASSUME 100% THAT "OPERATION ROAD BLOCK" IS CURRENTLY IN FULL EFFECT WITH MILLIONS OF LE DOLLARS BEING SPENT AND MILLIONS OF MAN HOURS ARE BEING USED AS A GLOBAL JOINT EFFORT TO TAKE THIS SITE DOWN AND BUST AS MANY PEOPLE AS THEY CAN IN THE PROCESS. WISE THE FUCK UP AND SHUT YOUR TRAP.
I hope it's just a few not-so-bright buyers who want these, and not vendors.

Dude, persec and opsec. Personal Security, and Operational Security. In the Infantry, you get this shit DRILLED into your head. Even IF I wore the shirt, who GIVES A FUCK?!?!?!?!????!! No ones gonna know what the fuck it's for. Holy shit. I firmly believe that you sir are an old asshole. Shit.
"Holy shit guys, this is super fuckin secret here. Don't tell anyone, because more money flowing through here would be a bad thing."
Jesus H Fucktits. Usually paranoid fucks don't annoy me. You, you're just fucking crazy.
Take some xanax.
"Yeah tell your cell mate how cool it was when you wore that shirt." Riiiight. Because wearing a shirt will definitely get me arrested. Lmao.
"Think about it, you're in public telling everybody who sees you, "I BUY DRUGS ONLINE"" No, you're just a retard who thinks that the SR is more important to the US govenment than the terrorist organizations trying to launch chemical attacks on a few big cities.
"What IF you get pulled over wearing it? Pretty sure you'll become a "person of interest" WTF, why not just go turn yourself in now?" - THIS is where ya got me. 1- WHY would ANYONE thing 'Green camel, must buy drugs online.?' 2- I was refered to this place BY AN LEO.
"WISE THE FUCK UP AND SHUT YOUR TRAP." - Take your own advice, dick.
Generally speaking, I'm a nice guy. Really. But you sir, are annoying. Law enforcement IS here. But most of the ones I know of want to keep it open as much as you do. So, come out of your bomb shelter, grandpa, the soviets arent gonna nuke Kansas.
-
I really want one of those shirts. I tell myself I'll get one next time I have some BTC... but noooo I forget!
If anyone wants to sponsor me one I'd be happy to model it in some sexy poses for you ^.^ :P
OMFG you're wearing a T-shirt with an Arab riding a camel tell me about how many drugs you must deal.,,

You're an idiot. You misread my post and what you put in quotes I never did say nor imply. I think SR should be wide open, the more the merrier. I know it's not a secret you ass-hat. The point of my post was for your own safety, and if your a vendor, for the safety of your customers. But in your case, I say go wear the shirt everywhere, everyday.

It is not about exclusive secret club.
It is not about spreading the word.
It's about personal security and plausible deniability.
I would like to see one of you the t-shirt lovers in such situation:
- What's in your envelope?
- I don't know, officer.
- Did you bought this drugs on the undeground website?
- No, I do not know anything about it.
- So what the fuck this green camel is doing at your fucking shirt, you punk?

"What's in your envelope?"
"Excuse me officer, have i done anything wrong?"
"Did you buy drugs on the underground website?"
"I have no idea what you're talking about"
"So what the fuck is this green camel doing on your fucking shirt, you punk?"
"My friend just gave me this shirt, am I free to go officer or have I done something wrong?"
Anyone who knows their rights, won't let a cop fuck with them over a Camel shirt. Also, if a cop is questioning you about mail, he obviously found out about you using silk road besides observing what you wear.
also you're implying if someone were to buy the shirt they'd wear it everywhere.
That's stupid.
I would love one of those shirts, but im not retarded enough to walk around the police station or an airport with it on. I might wear it riding down town to grab a sandwhich, and i would definitely wear it to a festival.
EVEN if an authority figure recognized the guy and camel on the shirt, I wouldn't have anything on me, nor would i give them personal information.
I totally understand the security issue, but ITS A SHIRT WITH A FUCKING CAMEL ON IT.
Calm down. Think LOGICALLY
Anyone who knows what that is, either is someone who goes here, or a LE who comes here, even if an agent saw you wearing it, what can he do about it?

Fucking THIS^^^^^^^^

Some of the quotes were sarcasm. And If I misread your implications, I apologize. But holy shit you sounded like you needed some good smoke. And I was up for 24+hrs. And I thought I was having a heart attack. And I may have been a bit drunk. But still, people, your nuts...chill em'.
