The neighbor of mine blows glass. He wants to put up a website to show what he has in stock. Pictures I'm sure and then just press delete to take it off when sold.
But he's asking about a secure website where cops and underage can't get in and you could see who is looking. I didn't say anything bcuz I dont' think that can happen. Can it?
 to you all

https
ssl
etc.
depending on what browser you are using, and what security options it has available, and if they are enabled or not, your browser will tell you when a web site isn't secure. To host that securely most web developers need to pay extra to their hosting company, so most web sites aren't secure. I'm pretty sure google chrome is well known for being able to enable high security in internet options, where it will be very obvious if a web site is secure by enabling https, when a web site is visited that doesn't use https, a message will come up on the screen saying
'this site doesn't use https, would you like to proceed?'
idk much more beyond that

Its impossible to keep cops and underage people out. Think about it. How could you know if someone is a user is a cop or underage person? Your friend could easily setup a site which only authorized people can visit. For example, he could setup a system where you have to have a username and password to see any of the products and the only people with a username and password are the people your friend trusts enough to give one to. With a regular registration form on the other hand, anyone can sign up and view the items on the site.

ok that's true, but how many customers is he going to have if every single person that visits the site needs to pass some test to see the products on the site. For that it'd be just as nice to make a site that is a forum, people sign up, and if they are approved, a confirmation is sent to the users email address. Now that sounds nice doesn't it? Cmon man that sounds incredibly unbelievably wrong. Now what benefit would a person get if they visited the site and couldn't see any products if they were a cop?
how would the site know they were a cop? you can create filters in property settings and restrict certain web sites or content in a browser on an end users computer, but how can you black list i.p.'s? A public i.p. address is one thing entirely from a private one. How would a user go about finding every police stations web site, expecting a cop to view the web site from the police station? Where is the verification the web site is hosted from the police station? Plus there are dozens of computers in every police station. This idea, if thought through, will make no sense what so ever. Remember dns propogation shows your web site to the dns address of every server in the world, so that anyone using a computer can view the web site.
on the user end it's easy to restrict a web site however:

Or you could put up a disclaimer stating that the glassware is for tobacco use only and for 18+. Thats how headshops stay in business

The police aren't stupid (well maybe they are but they do have some street smarts lol), they would go through proxies to circumvent things like that. Theres no way to keep them out. A disclaimer is exactly what the site needs. Put up a solid disclaimer stating the intended purpose of the products.

the other thing the head shops do is pay a retainer to a lawyer. this will not keep you out of jail, but u get out a little quicker and in better legal shape when they do decide to pressure the biz. the worse thing a defendant does is consult with a lawyer AFTER they get arrested instead of before.

secure website means you cannot intercept data betwen the user and the website.
however you cannot know who is the user.
why do you think there is no drug selling website?

website ->regular web
onionsite ->deep web
read the title once more...
a secure website is just a site using https protocol.
meaning the communication cannot be read by a third party, nothing else.

If you're selling blown pipes, just keep it legal, 'Tobaccco pipes' you'll be obligated to make sure to have a disclaimer that no one under 18 is allowed in, etc.. I don't know how you would keep cops from getting in without making it stupidly hard for your average customer to get in. If he were to keep it legitmate and legal you wouldn't need to worry about this.
