The dark net is the unknown part of the internet where people can remain anonymous and sell illegal things without government surveillance or judgment from others. While it allows for voice of dissent and anti-government movements, it also enables harmful, unethical, and illegal activities like selling illegal products and damages legitimate e-commerce. The use of the dark net is expected to continue growing as a place for underground movements and buying illegal goods as privacy from surveillance increases, though governments will try to crack down on it.
