They gave 322 homeless street addicts free opiates, which allowed them to sort their lives out since their day to day activities weren't entirely consumed with scoring heroin. Property theft and street violence also plummeted, saving ambulance costs for overdoses, and the police and courts millions which was all in the full SALOME study as most of the addicts used property crime to fund their addictions.

I imagine BI would do the same. Instead of being on an automatic pilot mode of desperately finding money for drugs and booze everyday there would be time to reflect and maybe seek out detox.

Credit cards they make their own fake stores by the hundreds and pay themselves small amounts, or they do instore fraud which is extremely risky. In the UK they simply card Tesco and then sell the groceries half price. Can also fraud bitcoins now as services exist to buy small amounts. None of this is easy, profits aren't huge it's all very small time unless you're the guy getting and selling the data to the legions of petty hustlers worldwide.

Of course google can install whatever they want on your device if given a NSL including a modified WhatsApp that sends in plaintext straight to the police everything you type but haven't heard of that yet either.

Since Facebook makes money harvesting data wonder if WhatsApp grabs advertising keywords first then sends via textsecure layer.

You can also edit Torrc to temporarily only use your own Tor exit nodes if worried about malicious exits while setting up accounts.

Of course if you were setting up an illegal hidden service payment would be the least of your worries. Moving it around every few weeks inside Russia like the inter-dimensional dark fortress in Krull to prevent long term traffic analysis, maintaining your site from a moving location everyday, and making sure you don't blow opsec giving away your identity is probably more difficult than finding creative methods to pay for hosting.

Every time they have temporarily relaxed drinking laws to try something similar here like DC movie night it resulted in brawling, stabbings, street hobos showing up to scream gibberish and aggressively pan handle, and the audience got so wrecked ambulances had to be called. It's like the heavy regulations that the West Coast cities screws into society creates a community that turns to bedlam the moment those chains are temporarily removed.

Severely mentally ill and violent people wandering the streets, committing rampant property crime to feed drug habits which make them even more unstable.

Most buyers on these sites are using some kind of drop, like a virtual office that accepts the package then forwards it or they go pick it up.

Seems like one solution would be to have a web browser that keeps no history, and use that to log into Twitter and report about cartels instead of an app that automatically logs you in or keeps history, or gives away the fact you have a twitter account they will demand to know about.

There's also schemes like this which could be helpful to at risk journalists https://www.ccsl.carleton.ca/~askillen/mobiflage/ unless you are kidnapped while in PDE mode.

If it's any small comfort, whoever was seen involved in this kidnapping is now a liability, as this case has brought a lot of heat so they were almost certainly finished off in the desert by their own cartel compadres to avoid potential snitching. The blog borderlandbeat has countless posts of mass executions the cartels do on their own guys as everybody except the capos are disposable.

edit: Likely cartels have employees at telecoms in Mexico to look up logs for them, there's prob no easy solution. It wouldn't be expensive for them to hire anybody to exploit journalists with old carrier builds that are never updated either http://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2014/09/16/shocking-android-...

Are these new laws even needed? Between the harsh libel and existing criminal laws on threatening what difference does this new law make except the slightly broad definition of "verbally abusive". I can think of a few The Exploited or Sex Pistols songs that will likely now be deemed verbally abusive towards the Queen.

Threats of course should be handled by police and not ignored, but the moment you seek media attention or acknowledge how the horde has "ruined your life" you are throwing gasoline on the fire.

Doxing, also now totally misused. Hackers would drop dox on each other to expose them to all the secret service agents and FBI agents watching. If somebody is not wanted by the feds and using their real name on social media there's no point in telling the world their information, considering there are eleventy billion personal data mining services to find out anybody's complete personal info for under $10. We're all already doxxed.

The worst thing you can possibly do when a horde of e-cretins is trying to bait you into losing face in public is to acknowledge them by writing "I'm a victim" posts and articles. That's exactly what they want. If you get death threats sue their asses or call the police. Otherwise that horde is just a bunch of meaningless text on a screen you can safely ignore that will quickly move on to a more responsive target.

All they did was smear away the logo in photochop, though their OEM might have provided this image. Anybody can make their own Anonbox with a Cubieboard or similar Allwinner A1x/A20 box for under $60.
