Disclaimer, independence, privacy & terms

1. Research-only disclaimer

This archive documents verification methodology, escrow mechanics and privacy analysis for defensive and journalistic research. It operates no marketplace, processes no orders or payments, and publishes no live onion addresses on the hub. Nothing here solicits transactions or encourages violating any law. Follow your local laws.

2. Editorial independence

No sponsorship, advertising or compensation from any marketplace, vendor, coin project or service. No external party has editorial oversight. No content is reviewed by subjects before publication. Funding, if any, comes from reader contributions and independent research grants.

3. Privacy

Static build by design: no accounts, no comments, no third-party trackers or ad scripts on these pages. Server logs are standard operational logs only. The contact page explains how to reach the desk with minimal metadata (PGP encouraged).

4. Terms of use

Content is provided as-is for research. You may quote with attribution and link. Do not re-host full pages as your own, do not misrepresent affiliation, and do not use this content to build phishing clones. Corrections: report via contact; valid corrections are published with a dated note referencing the prior version.

5. Corrections policy

Material errors are corrected in place with a dated correction line; prior claims are preserved in the note so readers can audit change history. Continuity or parameter changes without a dated note are treated as unverified.
