Photo: Joseph Cox</figcaption></figure></div> + <div> + <p id="c099" name="c099">Caudevilla first ventured into Silk Road forums in April 2013. “I would + like to contribute to this forum offering professional advice in topics + related to drug use and health,” he wrote in an <a data-href="http://web.archive.org/web/20131015051405/https://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion.to/index.php?topic=147607.0" href="http://web.archive.org/web/20131015051405/https://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion.to/index.php?topic=147607.0" rel="nofollow">introductory post</a>, + using his DoctorX alias. Caudevilla offered to provide answers to questions + that a typical doctor is not prepared, or willing, to respond to, at least + not without a lecture or a judgment. “This advice cannot replace a complete + face-to-face medical evaluation,” he wrote, “but I know how difficult it + can be to talk frankly about these things.”</p> + <p id="ff1d" name="ff1d">The requests flooded in. A diabetic asked what effect MDMA has on blood + sugar; another what the risks of frequent psychedelic use were for a young + person. Someone wanted to know whether amphetamine use should be avoided + during lactation. In all, Fernando’s thread received over 50,000 visits + and 300 questions before the FBI shut down Silk Road.</p> + <p id="1f35" name="1f35">“He’s amazing. A gift to this community,” one user wrote on the Silk Road + 2.0 forum, a site that sprang up after the original. “His knowledge is + invaluable, and never comes with any judgment.” Up until recently, Caudevilla + answered questions on the marketplace “Evolution.” Last week, however, + the administrators of that site <a data-href="http://motherboard.vice.com/read/one-of-the-darknets-biggest-markets-may-have-just-stole-all-its-users-bitcoin" href="http://motherboard.vice.com/read/one-of-the-darknets-biggest-markets-may-have-just-stole-all-its-users-bitcoin" rel="nofollow">pulled a scam</a>, + shutting the market down and escaping with an estimated $12 million worth + of Bitcoin.</p> + <p id="b20f" name="b20f">Caudevilla’s transition from dispensing advice to starting up a no-questions-asked + drug testing service came as a consequence of his experience on the deep + web. He’d wondered whether he could help bring more harm reduction services + to a marketplace without controls. The Energy Control project, as part + of its mandate of educating drug users and preventing harm, had already + been carrying out drug testing for local Spanish users since 2001, at music + festivals, night clubs, or through a drop-in service at a lab in Madrid.</p> + <p id="f739" name="f739">“I thought, we are doing this in Spain, why don’t we do an international + drug testing service?” Caudevilla told me when I visited the other Energy + Control lab, in Madrid. Caudevilla, a stocky character with ear piercings + and short, shaved hair, has eyes that light up whenever he discusses the + world of the deep web. Later, via email, he elaborated that it was not + a hard sell. “It was not too hard to convince them,” he wrote me. Clearly, + Energy Control believed that the reputation he had earned as an unbiased + medical professional on the deep web might carry over to the drug analysis + service, where one needs to establish “credibility, trustworthiness, [and] + transparency,” Caudevilla said. “We could not make mistakes,” he added.</p> + </div> + <div> + <figure id="4058" name="4058"><div> + + <p><img data-height="3141" data-image-id="1*knT10_FNVUmqQIBLnutmzQ.jpeg" data-width="4400" src="https://d262ilb51hltx0.cloudfront.net/max/2000/1*knT10_FNVUmqQIBLnutmzQ.jpeg"></img></p></div> + <figcaption>Photo: Joseph Cox</figcaption></figure></div> + <div> + <figure id="818c" name="818c"><div> + + <p><img data-action="zoom" data-action-value="1*ohyycinH18fz98TCyUzVgQ.png" data-height="24" data-image-id="1*ohyycinH18fz98TCyUzVgQ.png" data-width="1200" src="https://d262ilb51hltx0.cloudfront.net/max/800/1*ohyycinH18fz98TCyUzVgQ.png"></img></p></div> + </figure><p id="7b5e" name="7b5e">While the Energy Control lab in Madrid lab only tests Spanish drugs from + various sources, it is the Barcelona location which vets the substances + bought in the shadowy recesses of of the deep web. Caudevilla no longer + runs it, having handed it over to his colleague Ana Muñoz. She maintains + a presence on the deep web forums, answers questions from potential users, + and sends back reports when they are ready.</p> + <p id="0f0e" name="0f0e">The testing program exists in a legal grey area. The people who own the + Barcelona lab are accredited to experiment with and handle drugs, but Energy + Control doesn’t have this permission itself, at least not in writing.</p> + <p id="e002" name="e002">“We have a verbal agreement with the police and other authorities. They + already know what we are doing,” Lladanosa tells me. It is a pact of mutual + benefit. Energy Control provides the police with information on batches + of drugs in Spain, whether they’re from the deep web or not, Espinosa says. + They also contribute to the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug + Addiction’s early warning system, a collaboration that attempts to spread + information about dangerous drugs as quickly as possible.</p> + <p id="db1b" name="db1b">By the time of my visit in February, Energy Control had received over + 150 samples from the deep web and have been receiving more at a rate of + between 4 and 8 a week. Traditional drugs, such as cocaine and MDMA, make + up about 70 percent of the samples tested, but the Barcelona lab has also + received samples of the prescription pill codeine, research chemicals and + synthetic cannabinoids, and even pills of Viagra.</p> + </div> + <div> + <figure id="b885" name="b885"><div> + + <p><img data-height="1402" data-image-id="1*Vr61dyCTRwk6CemmVF8YAQ.jpeg" data-width="2100" src="https://d262ilb51hltx0.cloudfront.net/max/2000/1*Vr61dyCTRwk6CemmVF8YAQ.jpeg"></img></p></div> + <figcaption>Photo by Joan Bardeletti</figcaption></figure></div> + <div> + <p id="e76f" name="e76f">So it’s fair to make a tentative judgement on what people are paying for + on the deep web. The verdict thus far? Overall, drugs on the deep web appear + to be of much higher quality than those found on the street.</p> + <p id="5352" name="5352">“In general, the cocaine is amazing,” says Caudevilla, saying that the + samples they’ve seen have purities climbing towards 80 or 90 percent, and + some even higher. To get an idea of how unusual this is, take a look at + the <a data-href="http://www.unodc.org/documents/wdr2014/Cocaine_2014_web.pdf" href="http://www.unodc.org/documents/wdr2014/Cocaine_2014_web.pdf" rel="nofollow">United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime World Drug Report 2014</a>, + which reports that the average quality of street cocaine in Spain is just + over 40 percent, while in the United Kingdom it is closer to 30 percent.“We + have found 100 percent [pure] cocaine,” he adds. “That’s really, really + strange. That means that, technically, this cocaine has been purified, + with clandestine methods.”</p> + <p id="a71c" name="a71c">Naturally, identifying vendors who sell this top-of-the-range stuff is + one of the reasons that people have sent samples to Energy Control. Caudevilla + was keen to stress that, officially, Energy Control’s service “is not intended + to be a control of drug quality,” meaning a vetting process for identifying + the best sellers, but that is exactly how some people have been using it.</p> + <p id="cb5b" name="cb5b">As one buyer on the Evolution market, elmo666, wrote to me over the site’s + messaging system, “My initial motivations were selfish. My primary motivation + was to ensure that I was receiving and continue to receive a high quality + product, essentially to keep the vendor honest as far as my interactions + with them went.”</p> + <p id="d80d" name="d80d">Vendors on deep web markets advertise their product just like any other + outlet does, using flash sales, gimmicky giveaways and promises of drugs + that are superior to those of their competitors. The claims, however, can + turn out to be empty: despite the test results that show that deep web + cocaine vendors typically sell product that is of a better quality than + that found on the street, in plenty of cases, the drugs are nowhere near + as pure as advertised.</p> + <p id="36de" name="36de">“You won’t be getting anything CLOSE to what you paid for,” one user complained + about the cocaine from ‘Mirkov’, a vendor on Evolution. “He sells 65% not + 95%.”</p> + </div> + <div> + <figure id="8544" name="8544"><div> + + <p><img data-height="1402" data-image-id="1*a-1_13xE6_ErQ-QSlz6myw.jpeg" data-width="2100" src="https://d262ilb51hltx0.cloudfront.net/max/2000/1*a-1_13xE6_ErQ-QSlz6myw.jpeg"></img></p></div> + <figcaption>Photo by Joan Bardeletti</figcaption></figure></div> + <div> + <figure id="d521" name="d521"><div> + + <p><img data-action="zoom" data-action-value="1*ohyycinH18fz98TCyUzVgQ.png" data-height="24" data-image-id="1*ohyycinH18fz98TCyUzVgQ.png" data-width="1200" src="https://d262ilb51hltx0.cloudfront.net/max/800/1*ohyycinH18fz98TCyUzVgQ.png"></img></p></div> + </figure><p id="126b" name="126b">Despite the prevalence of people using the service to gauge the quality + of what goes up their nose, many users send samples to Energy Control in + the spirit of its original mission: keeping themselves alive and healthy. + The worst case scenario from drugs purchased on the deep web is, well the + worst case.

He started to report his findings to others + on the forums, and then created a thread with summaries of the test results, + as well as comments from the vendors if they provided it. Other users were + soon basing their decisions on what to buy on elmo666‘s tests.</p> + <p id="de75" name="de75">“I’m defo trying the cola based on the incredibly helpful elmo and his + energy control results and recommendations,” wrote user jayk1984.

(He + passed.)</p> + <p id="b008" name="b008">Meanwhile, some in the purchasing community are arguing that those running + markets on the deep web should be providing quality control themselves. + PlutoPete told me over the phone that he had been in discussions about + this with Dread Pirate Roberts, the pseudonymous owner of the original + Silk Road site. “We [had been] talking about that on a more organized basis + on Silk Road 1, doing lots of anonymous buys to police each category. But + of course they took the thing [Silk Road] down before we got it properly + off the ground,” he lamented.</p> + <p id="49c8" name="49c8">But perhaps it is best that the users, those who are actually consuming + the drugs, remain in charge of shaming dealers and warning each other. + “It’s our responsibility to police the market based on reviews and feedback,” + elmo666 wrote in an Evolution forum post.
