An Entity of Type: Darknet market, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Agora was a darknet market operating in the Tor network, launched in 2013 and shut down in August 2015. Agora was unaffected by Operation Onymous, the November 2014 seizure of several darknet websites (most notably Silk Road 2.0). After Evolution closed in an exit scam in March 2015, Agora replaced it as the largest darknet market. In August 2015 Agora's admins released a PGP signed message announcing a pause of operations to protect the site against potential attacks that they believe might be used to deanonymize server locations:

  • Àgora era un mercat de la web fosca que operava a la xarxa Tor, llançat el 2013 i tancat l'agost del 2015. Àgora no es va veure afectada per l'operació Onymous, la confiscació del novembre de 2014 de diversos llocs web de la web fosca (sobretot Silk Road 2.0). Després que tanqués en una estafa exit scam el març de 2015, Agora el va substituir com el mercat de la xarxa fosca més gran. D'octubre de 2014 a gener de 2015, el col·lectiu d'art ! Mediengruppe Bitnik va explorar la cultura de la xarxa fosca en una exposició a Suïssa titulada The Darknet: From Memes to Onionland, mostrant les compres de Random Darknet Shopper, una compra en línia automatitzada amb un robot que va gastar 100 dòlars en bitcoins per setmana a Agora. L'objectiu era examinar qüestions filosòfiques al voltant de la xarxa fosca, com ara la culpabilitat legal d'un programari o robot. L'exposició de les compres del robot, formaren un paisatge de mercaderies comercialitzades que incloïa una bossa de deu dosis de 120 mg de píndoles d'èxtasi "sense merda dins" (que contenien 90 mg de MDMA), i es va organitzar al costat d'una comissaria de policia prop de Zuric. L'agost de 2015, els administradors d'Agora van publicar un missatge signat PGP anunciant una pausa de les operacions per protegir el lloc contra possibles atacs que creuen que es podrien utilitzar per desanonimitzar les ubicacions del servidor: Després del tancament d'Agora, la major part de l'activitat es va traslladar al mercat de la xarxa fosca AlphaBay, que va durar fins al seu tancament per part de les forces de l'ordre el juliol de 2017. Agora no s'ha de confondre amb Agora Road (que és un lloc web completament diferent). (ca)
  • Agora was a darknet market operating in the Tor network, launched in 2013 and shut down in August 2015. Agora was unaffected by Operation Onymous, the November 2014 seizure of several darknet websites (most notably Silk Road 2.0). After Evolution closed in an exit scam in March 2015, Agora replaced it as the largest darknet market. In October 2014 to January 2015, the art collective !Mediengruppe Bitnik explored darknet culture in an exhibition in Switzerland entitled The Darknet: From Memes to Onionland, displaying the purchases of the Random Darknet Shopper, an automated online shopping bot which spent $100 in Bitcoins per week on Agora. The aim was to examine philosophical questions surrounding the darknet, such as the legal culpability of a piece of software or robot. The exhibition of the robot's purchases, a landscape of traded goods that included a bag of ten 120 mg Ecstasy pills "with no bullshit inside" (containing 90 mg of MDMA), was staged next-door to a police station near Zürich. In August 2015 Agora's admins released a PGP signed message announcing a pause of operations to protect the site against potential attacks that they believe might be used to deanonymize server locations: Recently research had come [sic] that shed some light on vulnerabilities in Tor Hidden Services protocol which could help to deanonymize server locations. Most of the new and previously known methods do require substantial resources to be executed, but the new research shows that the amount of resources could be much lower than expected, and in our case we do believe we have interested parties who possess such resources.We have a solution in the works which will require big changes into our software stack which we believe will mitigate such problems, but unfortunately it will take time to implement. Additionally, we have recently been discovering suspicious activity around our servers which led us to believe that some of the attacks described in the research could be going on and we decided to move servers once again, however this is only a temporary solution. At this point, while we don't have a solution ready it would be unsafe to keep our users using the service, since they would be in jeopardy. Thus, and to our great sadness we have to take the market offline for a while, until we can develop a better solution. This is the best course of action for everyone involved. After the closure of Agora, most activity moved over to the darknet market AlphaBay, lasting until its shutdown by law enforcement in July 2017. (en)
  • Agora war ein im Tor-Netzwerk als Hidden Service betriebener Darknet-Markt, auf dem insbesondere illegale Drogen, Waffen und verschiedene digitale Güter gehandelt wurden. Als Zahlungsmittel kam hierbei ausschließlich die Kryptowährung Bitcoin zum Einsatz. Nachdem Agora seit dem Fall des Konkurrenten Evolution im März 2015 der mit Abstand größte Darknet-Markt gewesen war, wurde die Plattform im September desselben Jahres aufgrund von Schwachstellen in Tor „bis auf weiteres“ seitens der Betreiber offline genommen.
