THE DARKNESS• A Darknet is an

anonymous network where connections are made only between trusted peers using non-standard protocols and port.

• It is hidden by proxies and complex encryptions beneath the surface of the internet where it is unreachable by search engines.

Page 3: Deep and Dark: Underneath the surface

THE DEPTH• It is estimated to be 500 times larger than

the visible networks

• Turning our searchable content into a mere fraction of the total

• It usually contains secured material hidden to the masses

• Ex.

• Illegal transactions (drugs, weapons, pornography etc)

• Government secured files and information

Page 4: Deep and Dark: Underneath the surface

IMPLICATIONS• A wide range of available and deep information is secured in these networks

• File-sharing among ‘peers’ are available without government intervention

• Mostly illegal transactions occur

• Very difficult monitoring of activities

• Information withholding

Page 5: Deep and Dark: Underneath the surface

THE SHADOWS CAST• It would drive illegal/black market growth because its transactions are hardly monitored

• Piracy and illegal file sharing

• Illegal activities would spread with the help of the internet

Page 6: Deep and Dark: Underneath the surface

THE SHADOWS CAST• Economic displacement

because of underground transactions that aren’t accounted for

• Stable Industries may shake because of underground dealings through the darknet

Page 7: Deep and Dark: Underneath the surface

WHAT’S NEXT?• It will drive faster

competition given wider file-sharing

• It will widen file-sharing content

• Underground community growth

Page 8: Deep and Dark: Underneath the surface

WHAT’S NEXT?• Underground growth – in terms of: communities, file and information sharing and access

• Illegal activities will be more complex and harder to handle, driving legal imbalance
