I doubt a "less potent form of drugs" will happen exactly as you imagine. Drug potency has skyrocketed because logistically it's easier to smuggle smaller quantities of a high potency substance. I personally think we would see a resurgence of drugs and doses of what people were previously doing before importing them got so difficult. What would be interesting though would seeing if any new analogs could be discovered with shorter term effects especially in the world of stimulants.

I disagree as what looks more suspicious, a computer with tor on it or a computer that has nothing on it because tor is on your flash drive?

A federated marketplace could be interesting but there are some fundamental issues that would need to be addressed.

If the vendor and vendee are on different instances how will payment be securely transmitted? What if there is a dispute, which instance Admin would have final say? Will the instance operator get a cut, if so how does that work? What's stopping my competition from opening an instance to check my stock level? What if I want to buy multiple items that are on different instances, do I have to check out on each instance?

If you can iron out the kinks this idea could make a lot of sense as a DNM as there wouldn't be a centralized server to shut down and being FOSS would allow for auditing of the marketplace which just isn't possible currently.
