暗网加密毒贩“可以尝试隐藏在互联网最远的地方，但司法部会找到你”

Dark web crypto criminals beware. The US Justice Department has issued a warning after arresting 288 dark web ne’er-do-wells over suspected opioid sales on the notorious drug trafficking site, Monopoly Market, which has since been taken down. 

This recent dark web purge, code name SpecTor, targeted the “largest, most violent, and most prolific fentanyl trafficking operation in the world: the Sinaloa Cartel.” That’s according to a powerful 美国司法部长梅里克·加兰致辞 （在新标签页中打开），其中他直接与试图通过在暗网上操作来绕过法律的犯罪分子交谈（通过 注册 （在新标签页中打开）).

他的讯息？

“You can try to hide in the furthest reaches of the internet, but the Justice Department will find you and hold you accountable for your crimes.”

The multi-continental SpecTor operation is the biggest ever of its kind, spanning eight countries aside from the US. It’s seen not only the largest number of arrests, but also the US Justice Department’s biggest haul of contraband to date. The score includes “117 illegal firearms, 850 kilograms of drugs, and $53.4 million dollars in cash and cryptocurrency”, says Garland.

“The drug traffickers are confident that, by operating anonymously on the dark web, they can operate outside the bounds of the law. They are wrong.”

Looks like Uncle Sam’s coming to shine the proverbial torch of justice on the dark web, then. It’s all very dramatic, isn’t it? 

Speeches like this make the whole thing feel so much like a stage play; I suspect it’s only fuelling the remainder of the fentanyl flogging dark webbers—laughing in their digital web3 halls, believing themselves to be some action movie mastermind who has yet to be caught.

Garland goes on to announce the Justice Department is “cracking down on criminal cryptocurrency transactions and the online criminal marketplaces that enable them.” It’s clear there is a big focus on cryptocurrency, but as this latest bust goes to show, crypto transactions may not be as spectral as you might think.
