That's easy. Register the domain in Russia, China, Iran, or similar country. Run the website in Alibaba.

Let them attempt to send legal toilet paper to Russia or China. I'm sure that will end well.

Yes - the solution to run any illegal activity on the internet: just register the domain in "Russia, China, Iran, or similar country".

You should tell the TOR folks about your findings, they can finally shutdown the darknet and just move their stuff to China.
