Surface

DEEP AND DARK
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.
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
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
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
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
WHAT’S NEXT?• It will drive faster
competition given wider file-sharing
• It will widen file-sharing content
• Underground community growth
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
