the real DNM threat model:

- any wrong move and you spend life in prison

- you can't even tell close friends, partners, family, that you are involved in it, you can't trust even your reflection in the mirror

- you are dealing with people that have no problem getting hitmen to get you killed

the LN bro DNM:

- hey guys feel free to access this on clearnet from your home or a local cafe while being recorded

- hey guys feel free to send payments from the coinos custodial wallet, you can just trust anyone to hold your money for you

- hey guys check this out we're doing very illegal stuff over here (some guy sells brownies and cookies)

- share it with your friends and family!
