Dark net:-It is a part of the yet to be discovered part of the internet. The dark net is part of the deep web, of which it is comparable to an iceberg. The small visible part is the web that we know of and the hidden part is the dark net.-People who usually use this web are the cast offs of society. Terrorist, pushers, addicts, you name it, they have it. it is the total opposite of the civilized world we know today. It is a place filled with unethical nature of all sorts in a corner and a lighter side in another corner.-People who use this service deliberately hide themselves from the preying eyes of the internet civilization.-You need a special software to access this web.
Dark side:-This part of the dark net is filled with filthy garbage that a civilized and well mannered English gentleman should know nothing about. From illegal weapons, to drugs of all sorts, you name it they have it, you just have to know how to look.-Onionland is the major Darknet hiding inside the anonymity-protecting Tor network, which was the focus of last week’s hubbub. The name pays homage to Tor, which was previously known as the Onion Router.-The dark web let’s you find hidden services of all sorts of illegalities.-Unless you’ve been there before or someone is guiding you, you will not succeed looking for what you’ve been looking since it moves constanly as a swamp does.
The Brighter Side.-Countries lacking free speech can voice out all of their concerns without worry in the dark net. It is here that they can be themselves without the fear of being arrested by a tyrant. Censorship and persecution is not a thing to worry about here, and has been a refuge of people form Lebanon, Mauritania, and Arab Spring Nations. -the New Yorker Strong Box is a magazine in which whistle blowers are able to communicate without anyone knowing. It is similar to the old structure of Bonifacio’sKatipunan, in which codes are to be used to be able to access information.
Shame-The dark net bring shame to e-commerce as it is a place wherein you trade illegal and unethical goods. It brings shame to the clean intentions of the other people using the service. It does not only bring shame but dishonor to people as business men and women.2. Freedom-On the other hand it brings freedom to the people who wish to seek for it. People who do not have the liberties we have use this dark net to express what they truly are. This also brings them closer to the truth, as they are able to access genuine information from the outside world that are prohibited from being spread by the givernment.
Trading of goods such as these ultimately bring shame not only to ecommerce but also to other legit businesses. Aside from not paying proper taxes, people transacting via the dark net also bring shame to humanity. How can such a person be so evil that he would take the escort services of a child, who is supposed to retain her innocence. How can a person be so narrow-minded to think that drugs would give him joy, and how can a person be so lazy to work and earn good money instead of buying counterfeits.
During the arrest of the founder of the leading dark net site SilkRoad, people initially thought that the dark net is going to collapse. On the contrary it remained firm, and the competitors are just benefitting form the lost of the main competitor. As the TOR is still intact, the dark net is also still intact. And as such, the only way to remove this is if the roots have been pulled put, and not pruned. As when you prune a tree it will produce more branches.
As cost continue to rise, people would depend more and more to cheap goods and services. And the dark net provides them in abundance. As can be seen in both Quiapo and Baclaran, the DVD sold on the streets itself are pirated and are being downloaded not just from pirate sites but also some form the dark net. Also the Chinese culture of imitation is in abundance. With the world’s second largest economy selling things from the dark net in abundance, who may stop them and totally quash the dark net?
