Bitcointalk admins will turn over your identity, IP address etc at the drop of a hat - you can bet on it!
You should DEFINITELY be using TOR for Bitcointalk and any other website you visit, whether darknet or clearnet.
I recommend using TAILS in conjunction with TOR.
Yeah it sucks! You can't even steal $80k anymore without people digging into your personal life and getting your fake Linkedin profile removed and your sites shut down. Life sucks
