I wonder what those "triangle crackers" were and what was so risky about them.

It's worth reading the bit where it orders ecstasy and gets the exhibit shut down.

Firecrackers from Poland, glad they didn't ship explosives in the regular mail often it is shipped on passenger aircraft in the cargo hold. You would go from petty smuggler to interpol's most wanted terrorist really fast if something happened. IIRC the darknet exhibit also shows the packaging, maybe the firecracker guy didn't want that on display.

A 1oz [Counterfeit] Canadian Gold Coin for $30

The description doesn’t indicate it was sold as a counterfeit, but no way you can buy an oz of gold for $30 on the dark web...

Hard to believe there’s a prosecutor with a brain between their ears and enough political cover to actually admit this is a worthwhile art project in the public interest to overcome the technical violation.

I loved the "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" book. I mean it must something subversive to be sold on the darkweb.

Edit: the other object are interesting: credit card, spy camera...
