New 'Google' For the Dark Web Makes Buying Dope and Guns Easy
First time accepted submitter turkeydance (1266624) writes "The dark web just got a little less dark with the launch of a new search engine that lets you easily find illicit drugs and other contraband online. Grams, which launched last week and is patterned after Google, is accessible only through the Tor anonymizing browser (the address for Grams is: grams7enufi7jmdl.onion) but fills a niche for anyone seeking quick access to sites selling drugs, guns, stolen credit card numbers, counterfeit cash and fake IDs — sites that previously only could be found by users who knew the exact URL for the site."
Remember back in the day when we had other search engines? Yeah, most of them were kinda terrible in comparison to Google. Every time I hear someone refer to their search engine as "Google for..." they've also been terrible. Google became king of search because they were so much better than everyone else.
...it'll let the Feds find them just as easily....
Or does anyone seriously think the NSA can't use this service just as well as Random Internet Idiot?

Thanks, Slashdot! I never get invited to the cool shit like this! Wait, what? All the cool dudes have moved somewhere else already?! Fuck you, Slashdot, you've ruined everything!!
If people think the NSA isn't all over the dark web, they be dummies.

Now the FBI and the Sheriff would be able to set up stings more efficiently. If they ever got around to learning how the tubes connecting the computers work.

what he said. While countermeasures can mediate the risk, you should assume that anything you send out electronically can be intercepted, decrypted and traced back to you. You can take steps to make this extremely difficult (hopefully more difficult than catching you is worth), you can certainly take steps I personally couldn't overcome without too much effort; but beating the intelligence gathering capabilities of one or more governments is at best an uncertain proposition (IMHO).
I'm really surprised that not one person has mentioned bitcoin in the summary, article, or comments on both websites.
It must play a central role here; does this mean that it's now taken for granted?
I would guess that half the illegal sites out there are already run by the Feds in order to fund their criminal enterprises (such as Holder's DOJ gun smuggling operation). Now they will compromise this search engine with a "National Security Letter" and squeeze out the legitimate sites and replace those with phoney sting operations in order to make themselves look good.
...sites that previously only could be found by users who knew the exact URL for the site.
Isn't that kinda how the Internet works. If your don't know the exact URL for a site and no one has posted a link to it on another site your do know, you're not going to reach it. It's only thanks to searching the indexing systems people can find stuff any other way.
Turn yourself in, it is the exact op I'd do if I was NSA , use slashdot and have twits not twitters click me :)

Bar hoppers? What's wrong with those of us who like to drink at many watering holes?
Its not hard in real life, and you have a better chance of not getting caught buying it.

You are the person that Bloomberg has spent 50 million to protect the children of the US against this year. There is a reason that parents are just getting fed up with the gun nuts. Look at Europe. Only the military and police have guns, and crime is 1/10 of what it is here. Venezuela enacted a country wide gun ban, and violent firearm crime dropped by 1/1000. People like you are why the SAFE act and other lesligation to protect children has been enacted.
Llaw enforcement will be lloving this new devellllopment, they'llll have yet another way to llook at the dark web.

Food for thought. Would you really want to live in Venezuela? Hitler made a lot of improvements in Nazi Germany before he became the man we love to hate. Somehow I'm not sure that making the trains run on time by making it so people no longer want to ride them is a good thing. But hey, to each their own.
Venezuela enacted a country wide gun ban, and violent firearm crime dropped by 1/1000.
So it's at 999/1000ths the level it was before?

Tor was created by the Naval Research Lab; Tor was created by the United States Government. Should we believe what we are told about it's invincibility. I've read personal opinions online that basically say that even though it was created by the Navy, they were doing it for themselves and made it really unbreakable. With all events being taken into account, during the past months, I am not so sure I really trust anything concerning government any longer. A program like TrueCrypt is more safe feeling to me, now. It is not known who created it other than the True Crypt Foundation. It has successful records against the alphabets who were unable to break True Crypt hard-drives after years of trying. This fact alone leads one to believe that True Crypt is not government affiliated in any way.
National Security Letters work if the person receiving them is subject to US law.
The "bully stick of diplomacy" may work of the person is subject to the law of a country that wants to stay on friendly terms with the USA.
If this site is hosted in a country like North Korea (which we can probably rule out to to their self-imposed Internet near-exile), Iran, or one of a small number of other countries openly hostile with the US Government, it's highly unlikely that the US Government will be able to use "the force of law" to compromise the site itself. Far more likely is that they will have to sneak in covertly to compromise either it or the pipe leading to it, or they will find a way of "taking over" the URL without taking over the site itself.

... there wasn't any search engine for TOR?
How were the Chinese dissidents supposed to find the tor-based hidden services on how to combat the Chinese government? After all, that's why the US Government invented TOR, right? Right???

Most certainly this site is run by some 3-letter government agency.
Buying guns is perfectly legal. gunbroker.com, budsgunshop.com, walmart.com. Well, to be fair the last one tells you they are instore only, but the others will gladly and legally ship straight to your FFL.

Each of those European States are only 1/10 the population of all 50 of the American States. In recent times, Ireland wasn't too happy about England's police and their guns for more than a century; neither was Europe's ten million and Russia's 20 million defenseless deaths a few decades ago. Canada & Australia populations are about half that of California. Unlike the U.S., the island states of Japan and Great Britain have had centuries of unilateral culturalism--only a century or so for Canada's and Australia's 20 million white people.

The gun deaths in the States, most were suicides, self defense and some stupid accidents. Stop blaming others for not taking care of your children.
In the United States you have a right, and a duty to train and learn how to use firearms effectively.
If you don't, your government will, or someone else will and you won't like it.
HIstory says so.
Readng a little about why the Constitution was written like it was, and why people thought that way is a lesson every American should learn.
Otherwise we as a nation will repeat the those same mistakes.

True forward anonymity is a useful thing and it served the myriad dissidents escaping opression which is good. Being involved in it also meant facilitating the use of others involved in slavery, abuse of minors, and so on. On balance I decided that I could not justify facilitating the downside, no matter how important the upside was. There has to be a better way than dancing with the devil. If you dance with the devil, you will pay his fee.

I'm sick of this BS about being overtaxed. They reason they have so much money to burn is because we have the 2nd biggest economy and because they love to run up debt and print money... plus it's also welfare to feed the oligarchy in a big pyramid scheme.
The level of taxation is not horrible; it's part of the culture to bitch about taxes until they are completely gone. The wealthy capitalize on it to drastically lower their taxes while the rest lose everything they depend upon and expect for their money - regulation becomes underfunded in addition to the capturing that goes on. Plus American's can't do math which helps if people can't tell that 5% is less tax than 30% tax because the wealthy "job creators" (demi-god or job shaman?) pay more absolute $ in tax than you do. And don't forget the decades of propaganda by the financial industry that social security is insecure and requires their "help" to make it better.

Venezuela has a murder rate of 45.1 per 100,000 post gun-ban. Are you really trying to suggest that their murder rate pre gun-ban was 45,100 per 100,000?
It should also be noted that the current 45.1 per 100K murder rate is ten times the US murder rate (4.5 per 100K)....
"I do not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"
Yeah, and now that it is newsworthy, a whole bunch of cops and agencies are going to expend as many tax dollars as they can toward doing the Silk Road bit to this Grams. Of course, someone else will start one somewhere else and more tax dollars will disappear into the aether. Done often enough, this could cut funding to Repubmocrat programs which buy them votes, while polishing the donut for the enforcement agencies. Repubmocrats, not wanting to detract from ,doing it for the children, will attempt to enact more internet control to protect their usual modus craperandi. Look for the CIA to be knee deep in Grams a la Sandinista, and the whole mess swirls round and round till it gets stuck in the plumbing and the log will have to be plunged manually.

research the origin of TOR, you would see that it was originally developed by and for the US Navy.

Would you really want to live in Venezuela? Hitler made a lot of improvements in Nazi Germany before he became the man we love to hate. Somehow I'm not sure that making the trains run on time by making it so people no longer want to ride them is a good thing.
If you're going to make massively fallacious analogies to history, you might at least want to get your basic facts straight. Hitler was not the leader of Italy.

Who said anything about Italy being in Germany? Did you get confused when I didn't spell it out for you?
But if you really do think I was talking about Hitler with the trains, you can check this out and suck on it.

I'm not certain that your math is correct.

There are 200 million homes in the U.S containing firearms. Two thirds of those deaths are from suicides.
Here's an incomplete list (incomplete due to issues with authorities and the dissemination information) of an interactive breakdown of gun deaths for 75 of the 200 countries in 2014; interactive, because you can reorder a column by clicking on the column's header to see the countries with the most deaths by accident, suicide, murder or overall total.
Here's a reordering based on the ones with the hihest homicide rate:
Honduras
El Salvador
Jamaica
Venezuela
Swaziland
Guatemala
Colombia
Brazil
South Africa
Panama
Mexico
Paraguay
Nicaragua
Costa Rica

Yes, get rid of the guns in the U.S.(that everyone likes to illegally immigrate to) so that it can become like the rest of "gunless" Latin America.
So the sites most trending significant subjects are porn, and weed. then in the top 20 (with the other significantly low traffic searches) are porno, sex, marijuana, cannabis. Colour me not surprised. Not really a huge shelf of illicit trades above the population here mostly just the same. Wankers got to wank. Does make it particularly curious though in some countries having or consuming hash, (or porn/escorts in some hotel suites), is a more serious crime. It wouldn't be only the American officials watching tourists.
