The term “deep web” is often used interchangeably with other terms like “dark web” or “invisible web.” It refers to the sections of the internet that cannot be accessed through regular browsers such as Google, Bing, or Firefox. To explore the deep web, users must download a specialized browser like Tor. The deep web gained significant attention during the Silk Road trial in 2015. Ross Ulbricht, the founder of Silk Road, received a severe sentence of double life imprisonment plus forty years. Silk Road was an online marketplace on the deep web that introduced many individuals to Bitcoin, as it was the primary currency used on the platform.
Despite the FBI’s efforts to shut down Silk Road, the deep web continues to be a popular destination for individuals seeking content that is not readily available on the surface internet. Traditionally, the deep web has been associated with the buying and selling of drugs, illegal goods, and other items found in the black market.
