    Stephen Sims joins David Bombal to discuss Operational Security (OpSec) through the lens of the "Darknet Marketplace Bible" (DNM Bible). While this document is originally designed to help criminals evade law enforcement while buying illegal goods, Stephen argues it is an excellent resource for cybersecurity professionals, journalists, and privacy advocates to learn high-level anonymity and encryption techniques.

    Disclaimer: Both David and Stephen repeatedly emphasize that this content is for educational, privacy, and cybersecurity research purposes only. They do not advocate illegal activity.
