Yeah but not for life. He ran a marketplace for illegal goods but didn't do anything on par with what other people who get life sentences did.
>getting caught for shilling your own site with an account linked to your real name
Are you going to post this thread everyday?
he wasnt even the mastermind behind ir all and they got him through entrapment. he shouldn't have gotten a day in jail. the site was handed off to him, he didnt make it, and they got him initally by having an agent pretend to be a hitman and then they convinced him he neesed to buy a hit. His failure was being too ideological, not taking it seriously enough, and not capitalizing on it enough to pay to GTFO the country. he thought he could change the world with a laptop. i guess hindsight is 20/20 but any serious political threat that has nothing but computer skills always gets canned. To change the world you need social skills, power, and resources. all he had was a website, coding skills, and an ideology that probably came from folks like stefan molyneaux.
they treated him like he was el chapo when he was really more like if McCaffee wrote an online marketplace instead of antivirus
Nah, jailing one guy doesn't do shit
He should have been given a deal to work with LE in reforming the Silk Road into a massive honeypot so we could actually catch all the buyers and sellers who are ruining our countries
No, he also pissed over the faces of the dea and fbi. He took a stick to a beehive, and got what was coming to him. Is it fair? No.
In what way did he take a stick to a beehive.
And obviously, no life in prison is fucking ridiculous.

this is what happens when your courts are filled with boomers. We need to automate justice. We need to have a worldwide forum, where every individual can post their opinions on crimes and discuss the appropriate consequences.
