The level of anxiety I feel just listening to this talk means I'd never make it as a vendor. Way, way, way too stressful but I admire his determination and commitment. He brought a level of professionalism to his work that's hard to match. Also, surprised the USPI had such a dogged investigator given how much of my mail has gone missing. What a fascinating insight into a world I couldn't imagine. I hope someone inspires this guy to continue his advocacy, whatever advocacy that might be, because he brings a formidable intellect and understanding.

[@SolidarityAndLiberation]

This is such a fascinating talk to watch! It's a privilege to have someone with this kind of experience share their story, and especially as well put together as you had it. I was surprised to see someone working in drug trafficking put so much thought into their business and it's a reminder that just because something is secretive and illegal does not mean those participating are strictly nefarious, antisocial, or unproductive. Thank you for shedding light on a topic that many would shy away from. It is also an indictment of the US's war on drugs as a driver of many of the harmful and disruptive aspects of drug use and economy. The worst things you had to do (using other's addresses, laundering, etc.) are strictly a result of the criminalization of drugs. Anyways, great talk and looking forward to checking out more of your content!

[@cswann8]

When he said he wanted to find a database of people that he wouldn't mind screwing over, I immediately thought of the sex offender registry. Pretty obvious really. Now if only there were a registry of people that ran spam call centers trying to sell extended warranties for you car.

Maybe if the registry gives details, but idk if it does. Merely being on the registry doesn't mean jack, someone could have gotten screwed over in multiple ways to be on it. Now if you could find a surefire list of legit pedophiles, then that would make sense. But this general registry strategy ignores that people can change and that some of them shouldn't be on there at all. Why not abandoned houses or government housing with multiple tenants or high turnover.

Damn dude, he almost beat the case at the Franks trial and got prisoner's dilemma'd. That's rough

[@aaronjennings8385]

The Prisoner's Dilemma. It involves two individuals who have been arrested and are being interrogated separately. In the Prisoner's Dilemma, each prisoner has two options: cooperate with the other prisoner by remaining silent, or betray the other prisoner by confessing. The dilemma arises because the outcome for each prisoner depends on the choices made by both prisoners. If both prisoners remain silent (cooperate), they both receive a moderate sentence. If one prisoner confesses (betrays) and the other remains silent, the betrayer goes free while the other prisoner receives a harsh sentence. If both prisoners confess, they both receive a somewhat harsh sentence. The dilemma is that each prisoner must decide whether to trust the other to remain silent or to betray them. The rational choice for each prisoner is to betray, as it ensures the best outcome regardless of the other's decision. However, if both prisoners act rationally and betray each other, they both end up with a worse outcome than if they had both cooperated. The Prisoner's Dilemma illustrates the tension between individual self-interest and the collective interest.

The most important part was the end even if youre opsec is perfect you can still get busted often times its the ppl you have no control of

[@paaao]

99 times out of 100, people get busted dealing drugs because of snitches. Once the pressure is on, your own mother will turn you in to live her last 20 yrs free from the system. The war on drugs is one of the most ignorant and destructive games humans have ever come up with. No lives saved. No reduction in use or harm. Everyone loses. Families, children, fathers, mothers, all thrown into hell over what really amounts to personal choice, and mental health management. The USA should be the one country on earth with the smarts to change their approach, but it isn't. People are stupid. Take all that money... DEA, ATF, FBI, budgets. National security/DOD and military money. Not to mention prisons, jails, judges, courts, etc... There's literally billions of dollars being poured into trying to criminalize and stop something that humans have been doing since the dawn of civilization. All that money could be choked off with the stroke of a pen, and 1/4 of it would be more than enough to provide free treatment and real help for people once they're ready. Legalize it all. Choke the cartels, and dealers all off. Make people get educated before they use, and let them do what they're going to do. Stop destroying lives and burning tax dollars to only make the problem bigger.

So, the main point of the talk is that he wouldn't put his own name or address on the packages. But then he said that the feds got on his trail by opening one of his packages. How could they trace the package back to him, then? The post office that it was sent from would be part of the routing information for the package. But how did they bridge the "first mile" gap from the post office location to him specifically? He would be one of only a few customers that sent out 20-30 packages daily, but that's not enough for a raid.

Respect and trust none of the qualities you could fathom

[@Maple-Sizzurp]

First I'd like to say great talk, thank you for sharing your experiences and story. Second, fuck yeah Kevin Mitnick. I read his books back in the day and I listened/read 2600. That brought back memories. Third I love the fact you were keeping on top of court cases and other vendor busts. Part of my job requires me to do similar things in that regard, and I tell you it's always the small stuff that adds up to bite you in the ass. Few tips of my own. A good guideline for a vendor when messaging customers, or communicating with potential customers using customer service techniques similar to how a busine operates is ideal imo. It comes across as professional, like you got your shit together but also lets you seem like a bigger team even if you are one person. No slang, copy paste the same verbatim message for orders received and shipped, etc. "Thank you for your order. Your order will be dispatched in the next 24-48 business hours. You should receive it in 3-5 business days after it has been dispatched to you. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to reach out to us and we will do our best to find a satisfactory resolution. If your order was to your liking, we invite you to leave positive feedback and or leave a review. Kind regards," Or if you don't have CS skills or experience and you are keeping it super casual then switching up your style of writing/slang frequently. Use slang that's from Poland, the midwest USA, Canada, UK. Be careful who you work with, because every single person you bring in is a possible liability. Family can be trustworthy but that can make you comfortable. Comfort is securities biggest enemy. Don't be openly bringing packs outside your home throw them in a gym bag, dress like you're going to the gym. If you treat this endeavor half assed and wing it you will have a bad time.

[@Sam_Bent]

Firstly, I really appreciate you taking the time to write such a thoughtful comment. It seems we share a fondness for the same cyber legends, like Kevin Mitnick. I love that his books and 2600 were part of your journey as well. I completely agree with you on the importance of staying on top of court cases and vendor busts. It's interesting how the minutiae can often end up being the most consequential, isn't it? Your pointers for vendor communication are solid. I'm a firm believer in the power of professionalism, and I think the template you've shared is an excellent representation of that. It's clear, courteous, and keeps the customer informed at every stage. This kind of interaction not only builds trust but also gives off the impression of a well-structured, larger team. The idea of diversifying writing style or slang to maintain a casual and unpredictable profile is also intriguing. It reminds me of the importance of blending in and not sticking to a single, identifiable pattern. I couldn't agree more with your advice on being selective about who we work with. Trust is a scarce commodity, and every new addition does indeed add a level of risk. And you're absolutely right about comfort being the enemy of security. Lastly, your tip on disguising activities as mundane tasks like going to the gym is brilliant. In many ways, it's all about mastering the art of being inconspicuous. Again, thank you for sharing your insights. It's always a joy to engage with someone who is as passionate and knowledgeable about these topics as I am. I'm sure your comment will provide valuable guidance for many who read it.

Two things so far. The part where you say that whicked will track you too New England makes sense . But won’t your return addresses be near where you ship from anyway? I get linguistic analysis but surley your not gonna use a return address in a different state wouldn’t that make it so obvious if anyone saw . Also the tracking number thing. No matter when they ask for tracking the website is gonna show where it ships from you know ? No matter how many days it takes to get the tracking number it still shows where the package initially entered the mail system .

[@ShortArmOfGod]

It allows LE to begin searching for him much quicker. The number tells them where to look. If they only have a day of people to try to identify from a busy post office, versus 3 or more days of people to look at going in and mailing things, it helps blend into the crowd.
