stemming from last year's seizure of a popular underground bazaar called Darkode Reborn Market.
It's one of many largest global dark web takedowns
to date: 179 arrests spread across six countries; 500 kilograms of drugs seized;
$6.5 million in cash and cryptocurrency confiscated.
And whilst it was announced today, Operation Disruptor traces its roots back to May 3, 2019.
This is the day that German police seized Wall Street Market,
the popular underground bazaar that gave international authorities everything they needed to upend the
dark web drug trade.
