Can you even buy these without ending up on a list somewhere? Since its only sold online this feels like the kind of thing that gets you on a list

I know of a mattress company that you can only purchase from online.

The only list it gets you on is a mailing list about their mattresses.

Mattresses vs Contraband. I wonder if the government monitors web traffic to the contraband website.

Ok I see why you guys might think this guy is being dumb, but having spent some time on Agora with all the honey pots, it's not too crazy.

That said, it's probably much less likely here my dude.

Only because Canada doesn't actually give a shit about car theft. If they did, this would be a very obvious honey pot.
