The Dark Web
A Force for Good?
What is the Dark Web?
•
According to the Global Commission on Internet
Governance: Dark Web: “Part of the Deep Web that has
been intentionally hidden and is inaccessible through
standard web browsers”
•
500x bigger than the surface web, 7500 terabytes of
information compared to 19 terabytes.
•
Only 0.03% of information available through traditional
browsers.
Examples of Dark Web Activity
•
Contract Killers: It is possible to order hitmen
anonymously from websites on the dark web
•
Credit Card Information: People are able to buy credit
card information from dark web websites
•
Betting: Certain websites offer the opportunity to bet on
fixed sporting events
Public Perception
•
More than 70% of global citizens want to shut down the
dark web, yet only around 20% hold this belief strongly,
according to Vocativ.
•
This suggests that, on the whole, we know truly little
about the dark web, or are apathetic towards the subject.
•
We all have an inherent right to privacy, protecting it is
not a sign of guilt.

Dark web obviously has many nefarious uses
•
Villainized in media as a home to criminals
•
In reality, there are advantages to using it
•
As privacy decreases, use of the dark web will increase
