OPSEC hunDREADS Contest Winners! : Dread | Torhoo darknet markets

Congratulations to all of the winners!! Thanks you to everyone for taking the time to share their knowledge, and help others. It was really tough for us to leave any of the posts out, so many of them had good information in them. Remember opsec continues to change so I hope everyone keeps sharing tips, and making great posts like this!


Also take the time and go read some of the other posts that entered. A lot of them have great information too!! /post/dfc99ce87eea11de97c8

First of all I want to say thank you to /u/Paris, /u/Shakybeats and /u/HugBunter for yet again stepping up, showing their support for the community and organising this event.

Next, I want to thank everyone for their kinds words. I genuinely had so much fun writing this entry and to be honest I didn't think I'd score so high becuase there were so many great entries for this contest.

But, I'd like to take this oportunity and say, we as a community can do better and make more educational posts even withouth financial insentive. I will definetly be starting my own series of write-ups on different subjects in the near future.

Well-deserved #1! Congratulations https://torhoo.cc/go.php?u=TDNVdldtbGhiZz09#!

Told you you'd at least place. Not surprised at all you took first on the podium :)

Congratulations to all the other winners and entrants who took their valuable time to research and make these write-ups for all of us to enjoy and especially LEARN from them. All of them definitely have something to learn from, even the ones that didn't place or win anything may have some valuable information you may be missing.

OPSEC should ALWAYS be taken seriously :)

Nice work everyone.

Yeaaaa I won! Thank you /u/Paris and Thank you everyone who participated in this contest. now with all these amazing posts /d/OpSec Subdread should definitely be the first stop to anyone with DN activity.

/d/HugBunter is it possible any new member join dread will find himself already automatically subscribed to /d/OpSec like /d/Dread ?

I was a winner too! Thanks so much! Why was my name not listed? Because my prize was a carefully selected compilation of the best entries all listed in order of quality so without any effort whatsoever on my part I can just click the links provided to read the best of the best. Win, win!

Congratulations to the winners! This is a treasure trove of information indeed!

Such good information. Need more of this. I'll be donating to dread now to indirectly help sponsor these kind of contest.

Congrats to all the winners. And thank you Dread Team. I am sure the rest of us will put in much work next time. Good job everyone.
This was a wonderful contest. So much information for everyone. Thanks again Dread Team.

First of all, thanks everyone for all the Best Practice posts. It is an another amazing collection of tools and procedures. Most of them battle-proven against certain adversaries, attacks, under certain circumstances, used by certain people with certain skills. It is but not OPSEC.

/u/Shakybeats, /u/Paris, /u/HugBunter we would like to understand why the DN community continuously deny the reality and mistakes the Best Practice for OPSEC, not only for its own detriment, but in many cases its own horror as well (see the news). It doesn't make sense. Throughout years of our career in the Counterintelligence area, we had to deal with various levels of situational awareness and intelligence levels of the large pool of stakeholders. Some of them were more informed and skilled some less, which is normal. This always determines the smoothness and way the Counterintelligence training and setup is made for each group.

We have but never encountered the situation in which large group of people, and DN community is really large, collectively and continuously denies the reality even in the face of grave consequences steaming out of it. There is not only ignorance of reality but in some cases arrogance as well. We have rewritten all the military acronyms to be able to use civic language during trainings and setup to get people on board, but it is still not clear.

The DN community, is largely not aware of its value and role. It is one of the last bastions of freedom. Its significance will show up more and more in time coming. But if the community will continue to deny the reality and mistake Best Practices for OPSEC, effectively giving themselves as a free game to the adversaries, and make again and again the same mistakes, it can fail its role, for its own horror and the horror of the rest of the humanity.

Your setup MUST be proportional to the setup of your adversaries. Now it is not the case and the gap is getting more and more in favor of the adversaries. It is time to wake up.

I do feel like some submissions got screwed over very badly, and in their some "OPSEC for your toddler!" -Guides won the prize. But as it was their money, my only complaint is that it should be made more clear what qualities the qualities the guide is looking from the hosts and hostesses.

(An I do want to emphasize that mine isn't one I feel was snubbed in any way. Only positive thing I can say that I'd put it in the top 50, however I only noticed the competition in the last 2 hours and did my best)

This is great!!!

So many good reads, and congratulations!

Congratulations winners! I really have learned a lot from your OPSEC articles.

i need to make some money any body with methods working in usa tap in im willing to pay for it

A general question: How important is opsec when ordering only personal amounts for personal consumption?

Congratulations to all. Great info.

I dunno if I'm just blind or how the hell I'm JUST now coming across this super cool post & amazing contest. I'm not sure enough to know who financed this & the rewards but for those who are responsible for putting up the rewards, I want to say thank you so much you guys/gals are legends that is so cool & this is exactly what noobs like myself need to be able to read & learn from so again thank you a 1000 X's.

Now 2ndly, to the contestants/winners thank you all JUST as much for being kind & patient enough to take the time to tediously type out All of your wealth of knowledge for us who can benefit greatly from just reading through all of them. I know how annoying it can be to have to sit around typing for hour or more so thanks to the creators of this contest & providing the rewards to help incentivize all these great posts by the contestants.

I'm still a noob in the grand scheme of time that DNM's have existed & I've just been a member of this community for 15-18 months roughly so I always appreciate when I can get the opportunity to soak up this level of knowledge so again thank you so incredibly much to both contestants & contest creators I have learned a LOT & am still working my way through them all but this was a genius idea y'all so I appreciate it & plan to soak every word of it up before the end of the day. Stay safe and stay healthy everyone.

P.S.
RIP WHM I will miss this sites level of security & large amount of vendors/listings. Thanks for the graceful exit & showing others honesty & integrity still CAN exist even in the shady world of DNM scene. So God bless & God's speed to ya.

keep up with the write ups they help big time.

Congratulations to everyone

What a great post awesome!!!!
