I could realistically see it being cheaper than LSD which technically can be produced under a penny per dose because it's so potent, but I think making 1000kg of meth in one batch would be even cheaper per dose -

Telegram doesn't keep much info. Ig they have your phone number but I read from people who look into that your IP isn't even recorded.
If both telegram and discord groups got hit at the same time then how the fuck is telegram "more secure" when it took them the exact same amount of time to shut them both down.
I have always suspected this, good things don't last forever and people that think their super secret telegram groups are some kind of bastion of privacy are gonna be in for a rude awakening when they realize their platform is just as shitty as every other "secure" platform online and they have just fallen for another right wing grift/honeypot and now all their secret pedophile groups and scam channels will be exposed
because at the end of the day if a company is legally operating on US soil and paying taxes and working with the government and FOLLOWING THE LAW they can't be trusted because they are just as beholden to the same forces as any other company, they aren't special.
this is what privacy looks like, legal consequences. If nobody is going to prison to destroy evidence for you then they don't care about your privacy, simple as. Criminals aren't trustworthy but the only way for something to be truly PRIVATE is for it to be illegal or impossible to legislate

The private chats aren't stored on their servers. You can't give anything you don't have. So no...there doesn't have to be legal consequences for privacy.
And I don't think it is considered a right wing app anymore. People were transitioning to it from Kik for sex. It's shitty for finding anything without being linked from outside but someone told me that's so it's not classified as social media in certain countries ig because it would need more censorship in the ones with teh freedumbz.
It would be gay if they handed over anything without it being government provocateurs saying something stupidly illegal. Which going by the name it could be. -

it's sad to see grey market global companies that break the law for profit do it ONLY for profit and then exit the market leaving the rest of us in shambles to pick up the pieces and decentralize further.
let's not forget the monero foundation iself was hacked not long ago

roughly 457,880.88 USD worth of crypto stolen
The CCS Wallet was drained of [b]2,675.73 XMR[/b] (the entire balance) on September 1, 2023, just before midnight. The hot wallet, used for payments to contributors, is untouched; its balance is ~244 XMR. We have thus far not been able to ascertain the source of the breach.
Timeline
April 12, 2020: New CCS wallet is created by fluffypony (on a dedicated wallet laptop, a Purism Librem 14, running Qubes) and the seed shared with Luigi, half via the Wire app, and half via GPG-encrypted email -- fluffypony and Luigi are the only parties with known access to the CCS seed.
2020-2023: (Luigi's side) a single use Ubuntu system is set up to run a Monero node and CCS wallet; the hot wallet is on a Windows 10 Pro desktop where it has been since 2017; Luigi makes payments from the hot wallet and tops it up from the CCS Wallet (via SSH), occasionally as needed.
August 3, 2021: shortly after fluffypony's arrest, most of the CCS wallet was swept by Luigi to the hot wallet as a short-term measure pending more information about the nature of the arrest
(a few weeks/months later) fluffypony's arrest is determined not crypto-related; reverted to previous behavior of large CCS balance, small hot wallet balance
May 10, 2023: last transfer was made by Luigi from CCS wallet to hot wallet
September 1 11:58pm - September 2 12:07am, 2023: CCS wallet was swept in 9 transactions, IDs:

(wallet was then empty)
September 2023: donations come in for Lovera CCS (the only proposal that was in Funding Required)
September 28, 2023: Luigi logs into CCS wallet to top up hot wallet, finding (after syncing from May 10th as expected) a balance of ~4.6 XMR, representing September donations for Lovera; no additional transfers occurred after September 2
September 28, 2023 (a few hours later): Luigi has call with binaryFate on what has been discovered; General Fund is confirmed to be intact. Shortly after, Luigi, binaryFate, and fluffypony have a call discussing the situation.
September 28 - now: Core Team discusses internally; Luigi and fluffypony forensic efforts -- unfortunately, to date, no evidence of breach has been identified
Open questions:
How do we achieve CCS continuity for existing contributors? Core team is in favor of covering existing liabilities from the General Fund.
How do we structure the CCS going forward?
How did the breach occur?
at this point the BLACK MARKET isn't even at risk from being busted anymore it's simply failing due to ECONOMIC FORCES of regulation that have no direct influence on black markets or crypto markets much in any way because binance does not follow any rules in any country, they are global outlaws, Monero pretty much goes against any regulation by design
That just leaves proof of work coins and those are being clamped down on hard

buy your bitcoin and monero ordinals while they are cheap I only see this stuff becoming more value as more FEDCoins and retard regulations are shoved down peoples throat weather you like it or not, even most allies at this point I would not trust as they have proven time and time again they WILL turn on everyone for $$$$$ it's not IF it's guaranteed WHEN. You simply cannot work within the system in any capacity, if you have a bank account or pay taxes or OWN LAND and pay taxes on that you are tainted and corrupted and will turn against the market when the boots step on your neck, nobody is going sacrifice themself for nothing because there is nothing to gain, nobody will stand up or defend you. They have won in this regard so it's useless to resist against that, different methods and new technologies are the only way to fight against and undefeatable anti economic evil ape -

nobody who's not retarded thinks telegram is totally secure and anonymous; just like any other service you need to worry about security for yourself. they're a for-profit company that now pushes a subscription service so they're forced to act on subpoenises and court orders, but unlike the big social media/chat platforms they don't go out of their way to look for wrongthink and/or naughty speech because they're headquartered in Russia/KSA and for the most part just don't care.
for what it's worth they do offer end-to-end encrypted chat, but only direct chat, you can't E2E encrypt a channelThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

highly unlikely.
it will more like BLM-tier riot and chaos rather than organized resistence.
just look at the serios people on both side and you'll see theyre both retarded, ignorant and fat. they wont be able to sustain anything serious and attritious. -

I've been at public ranges where niggers and commies were using guns. Not technically shooting them...
I literally laughed at one that shot a ceiling tile that fell down. The range master said be nice because you were new to shooting once too. I replied I've never been that bad a shot and I never accidentally shot anything
Another was literally so limp-wristed (male) he couldn't fire a semi-auto pistol because it couldn't cycle. -
