      Yeah, and the FBI has been doing that for at least 7 years now, to catch some pretty disgusting criminals: digitaltrends.com/…/fbi-running-darknet-child-por…

      If they are willing to do it to catch bad guys, who’s stopping them from doing it to monitor good guys as well?

      If someone has a Microsoft defender HE IS the honeypot. MD can just hook into that browser and track them.

      Basically a trap made to look tempting, ex: police run a site to buy illegal stuff for cheap to catch the people trying to buy it
