Part 2:The Dark Web’s Ecosystem and Major Crimes

Even though accessing the Dark Web is lawful, much of what happens there is criminal. Through encryption, users of dark websites can maintain their anonymity. Anyone involved in crime will find this appealing. Additionally, it is helpful for whistleblowers who worry about retaliation and political dissidents who live in totalitarian regimes. It is therefore legal to use the Dark Web, but it also gives access to unlawful activities and contraband. Part 2 aims to allow the reader to understand the Dark Web’s ecosystem (both the good and bad sides) as well as the major crimes that occur on this hidden part of the internet.

This part has the following chapters:

Chapter 3, Drug Markets on the Dark Web
Chapter 4, Child Pornography on the Dark Web
Chapter 5, Human Trafficking on the Dark Web
Chapter 6, Cyberterrorism on the Dark Web
