      Cryptostorm is a honeypot that was discovered years ago. I’m surprised anyone even talks about it still

          It was a big controversy years ago. You can take or leave the info. I don’t have the time to look it up.

            Douglas Spink was arrested. He was then removed from the team, no longer having access to anything. Df has been the main guy for the past couple years - but that’s cryptostorm becoming a honeypot, in your opinion?

            Doesn’t hurt to be overly paranoid, but this is to the extreme.

          It was a big scandal some years ago and I don’t have the time to look it up for you. You can take it as you like.
