> ...to seize four domains hosting the SSNDOB marketplace...

So they just got control of 4 domains pointing to the site, put up a takedown page and then issued a press release?

Did they actually do anything to stop the owners of the site from pointing another domain to the marketplace?

it's not the first time they just put a random seized photo on a domain then do a press release. take for example joker stash, after seizing one of their proxies they made a press release saying that after years of hard work they took it down. after two hours it came back online on the same domain.
