all domains are down

it is estimated he made over $50 million in the several years it was functioning

the guy did a ton of security mistakes

-registering early domains to his name
-using a single corp to funnel cash
-direct deposits into said corp bank accounts from advertisers
-using same connection used to connect to admin site related stuff to login to american based services
-corp domain name openly registered with own name
-linkedin profiles of employees mapping the developer's network
-servers hosted in five eyes country including email server revealing all conspiracy among developers and moderators
-no pgp email encryption used

the guy logged in to fb to admin the kat page, Homeland Security grabbed that ip, that same day he logged in to itunes to buy whatever, HSI matched the ip, now HSI had his itunes account linking him to his real name, that very same day he logged in to his Coinbase account, now HSI had double confirmation of his identity

this is opsec 101 failiure, brother pucky ALWAYS compartmentalize connections, devices and identities
