A Force for Good?Slide2
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. Slide3
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 Slide4Slide5
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. Slide6
Conclusion
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 increaseSlide7
