Written by a guy from "5 live", a Sports subdivision of the BBC which has right-wing tendencies, has done a piece on the .onion part of the Web. Bit shit as it will mean an new "tsun00bie" of people flooding the dark web which is already under enough stress with the whole SOPA and ACTA legislation (Silk Road difficulties in the past, to name a site).
Anyway, to the point - this "expose" pisses me off. Here it is. Note there is nothing about the vast libraries and archives of useful, little-known info - rather drugs, weapons and other illegal activities. That's like me saying "phones are evil because there are some wank-lines, drug dealers and other naughty things" and getting a positive reaction from it :facepalm:
Out of reach of regular internet searches is the secretive online world known as the 'dark web' - anonymous, virtually untraceable global networks used by political activists and criminals alike.
"You have the availability of multiple dealers so you can compare products - and customers can review the dealer's product, too."
American student, David - not his real name - explains why he chooses to buy illegal drugs on the so-called 'dark web'.

Funny, I was just talking about this to some kid in my web design class. Out of nowhere he asked the teacher if he knew what the deep web was, no one in the room had any idea what it was, i laughed a little so he figured I did. Long story short, we are friends now.
