On March 10th, several days after Incognito Market was assumed to be shut down or no longer be processing transactions, the site posted a message to its homepage that reads as follows:
>”Expecting to hear the last of us yet? We got one final little nasty suprise for y'all. We have accumulated a list of private messages, transaction info and order details over the years. You'll be surprised at the number of people that relied on our "auto-encrypt" functionality. And by the way, your messages and transaction IDs were never actually deleted after the "expiry"...”
>”SURPRISE SURPRISE !!! Anyway, if anything were to leak to law enforcement, I guess nobody never slipped up. We'll be publishing the entire dump of 557k orders and 862k crypto transaction IDs at the end of May, whether or not you and your customers' info is on that list is totally up to you. And yes... YES, THIS IS AN EXTORTION !!! As for the buyers, we'll be opening up a whitelist portal for them to remove their records as well in a few weeks.”
>”Thank you all for doing business with Incognito Market”
Exit scams are not uncommon on dark web markets, but this one is particularly large and openly threatening compared to most. Incognito Market requires the loading of cryptocurrency to a site-based wallet, which can then be used for in-house transactions only. All cryptocurrency on the site was seized from user’s wallets, estimated to be anywhere from $10 million to $75 million. After seizing the cryptocurrency wallets of all of the marketplace’s users, the site now openly explains that it will publish transactions and chat logs of users who refuse to pay an extortion fee. The fee ranges from $100 to $20,000, a volume based 5 tier buyer/seller classification.
Incognito Market also now has a Payment Status tab, which states ”you can see which vendors care about their customers below.” and lists the some of the market’s largest sellers. Sellers which have allegedly paid the extortion fee to not have their transaction records released are displayed in green, while those who have not yet paid are displayed in red.
Additionally, in a few weeks the site claims it will have a “whitelist portal” which would allow buyers to wipe their transactions and re-encrypt chat records.
Whoever is behind the website must be extremely, extremely confident in their anonymity, already working with government agencies, or both, because a bounty on this person is likely worth millions.
!yeonmi-park In capitalist America, in order to go to work every day you have to let the military search through your belongings. Once you pass the military checkpoint you must still be wary because there are police officers disguised as civilians hiding in the crowd.
Another hilariously unbelievable conservative name. This mf is really named “McClanahan” and in the KKK
Why didn’t you stop it you !LIB
Nooooooo aha these movies aren’t propaganda I super promise
Fun Newsweek article about this:
At last year's D23 expo, Disney announced a new character would be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe—Israeli superhero Sabra.
Debuting in 2024's Captain America: New World Order alongside Anthony Mackie, Sabra's inclusion has been divisive from the start. However, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has deepened the issue and created more potential pitfalls for the studio.
On October 7, the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel, which subsequently fired airstrikes on Gaza. At least 1,400 people have been killed in Israel as of October 30, while more than 8,000 have been killed in Gaza, according to the Associated Press, citing the Israeli military and the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry respectively.
"The Sabra character, when juxtaposed with Captain America, unavoidably amplifies nationalist and political ideologies and convictions, and could inadvertently exacerbate tensions in the Middle East," Deepak Sarma, professor at the College of Arts and Sciences at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, told Newsweek.
Sabra first popped up in The Incredible Hulk in 1980. A mutant with enhanced strength and speed, the character is also an agent for Mossad, the real-life Israeli secret service. Her real name is Ruth Bat-Seraph, while the codename Sabra means "a person born in Israel."
In Captain America: New World Order, Sabra will be played by Shira Haas. The 28-year-old Israeli actress is best known for starring as Esther Shapiro in the Netflix mini-series Unorthodox, which focuses on a Hasidic Jewish woman who moves abroad to escape an arranged marriage.
Sabra was originally envisioned as an Israeli counterpart of Captain America, and in early editions, the Jewish superhero wore a white bodysuit emblazoned with a blue star of David. She is trained in hand-to-hand combat and has the power to help others heal more quickly.
"Of course, Sabra would be considered offensive by Palestinians, Arabs, Muslims and their supporters given the complexities of nationhood and nationalism in the Middle East," Sarma said. "But the current conflict heightens tensions significantly."
Eliza Jane Schneider, a voiceover artist and activist whose Freedom of Speech project gives voices to diverse backgrounds, agrees.
"It's potentially offensive, because spotlighting an Israeli superhero, specifically an Israeli intelligence anti-terrorist, on this global scale, with the wide reach that Marvel has, risks further polarization," she told Newsweek.
"It could be seen as Marvel and the United States supporting and aggrandizing Israel's policies."
In her first appearance, Sabra attacks The Hulk, whom she believes is assisting an Arabic militant group. When a Palestinian boy is caught up in the battle between Sabra, The Hulk and the terrorists, then dies, The Hulk declares: "Boy died because boy's people and yours both want to own land! Boy died because you wouldn't share!"
Of course, the long-running conflict between Israel and the Palestinians is significantly more complicated than that, and is just one reason why the source material is controversial.
Although the death of the Palestinian boy supposedly leads to a more compassionate Sabra, the transformation doesn't last for long. Throughout her tenure, Sabra holds negative views toward Arabic characters, including fellow superhero Arabian Knight, whose stereotypical portrayal comes with its own issues.
In the comic New Warriors (1995), her motivations are somewhat retconned and less nationalistic, with the character supposedly disliking Palestinians because her son was killed in a terrorist attack.
Throughout her comic appearances, Sabra's commitment to the Israeli government and Mossad doesn't waver. During one particularly grueling battle with Sabra, The Hulk thinks to himself: "I'm not fighting a woman. I'm fighting the Zionist recruiting board."
Sabra's nationalism is not unique in Marvel comics. The 1960s introduced readers to Red Guardian—the communist Russian version of Captain America, played by David Harbour in Black Widow (2021)—while other cultural counterparts include Captain Britain, who was gifted magic powers by King Arthur's sorcerer pal Merlin.
Disney could flesh out Sabra's character, so she is less dependent on offensive stereotypes, as it did with Red Guardian. Disney According to Schneider, Marvel could give Sabra the same treatment it gave Red Guardian, fleshing her out into a more complex character that doesn't rely on stereotypes.
"Perhaps this is an opportunity for a character to experience life and love from both sides of this conflict," she said.
"Filmmakers could make it unclear throughout the first three-quarters of the film which side our beloved, nuanced, flawed but altruistic new superheroine is on—question her own allegiances, swayed more by universal love and desire to protect all children and civilians on both sides of the conflict, thereby acknowledging the inherent value of human life across groups."
Sabra was already a controversial character in the 1980s, but the current fighting has put the Israeli-Palestinian conflict front and center once again, making her inclusion in the upcoming movie even more divisive.
"It is not hard to imagine protests at movie theaters or even the banning of the film in Arab or Muslim countries," Sarma said.
To offset the character's contentious history, Schneider hopes Disney will explore Sabra's positive attributes, along with developing her relationship with the Israeli government and Palestinians.
"Sabra has the ability to transfer her life energy to other people, the ability to grant superpowers to other people, and regeneratively heal," she said. "She is in a perfect position to promote love, forgiveness, humanity, peace and positive change."
A Marvel Studios spokesperson has previously indicated that such concerns are being considered.
"Filmmakers are taking a new approach with the character Sabra who was first introduced in the comics over 40 years ago," the spokesperson told CNN in September 2022, adding that characters in Marvel Cinematic Universe "are always freshly imagined for the screen and today's audience."
Uri Fink, a leading Israeli comic book artist, has also questioned whether some critics' fears that the character would be presented as pro-Israel would turn out to be accurate.
"Sabra went on to feature in some stories that weren't very pro-Israel, it was already weird back then. So I don't think this would augur well for how she'd be depicted by Marvel now that they've gone woke," he told the Israeli outlet Ynet.
Israel is shocked it is losing the public relations war and then uses arguments like “the speed of our genocide far exceeds the feeble counting abilities of our subhuman enemies” with 100% seriousness
