The Iceberg Of The Internet

Google searches this immense collection of web pages often in less than half a second.

A Web crawler, sometimes called a spider, is an Internet bot that systematically browses the World Wide Web, typically for the purpose of Web indexing. Crawlers can validate hyperlinks and HTML code. They can also be used for web scraping. Crawlers consume resources on the systems they visit and often visit sites without approval. Issues of schedule, load, and "politeness" come into play when large collections of pages are accessed. Mechanisms exist for public sites not wishing to be crawled to make this known to the crawling

We are taken hostage through internet. It channelizes our minds and excludes the important things in life. Internet is a network providing a variety of information and communication facilities. Throughout internet we get distracted, leaving our loved ones behind. It's as if we are in a new world losing precious time.

When the book 1984, by George Orwell, was first published, people thought very little of the world that had been created within the book. In this world, society was run by the Inner Party, whose "leader" is Big Brother. Big Brother is the embodiment of the Party; he is the one who controls everything. He controls food ration, living arrangements, work positions, privacy, and even a person's mind. Privacy did not exist. In modern times, many aspects of the anti-utopian novel are beginning to appear in society. One of the major factors that are becoming more and more like Big Brother is the Internet. More specifically, Google, a very popular search engine, has been ridiculed and attacked for certain policies it has and does not have that resemble Big Brother's antics. Google is under suspicion as being the next Big Brother by many parties, including an organization under Privacy International called Google Watch, because of their disregard of privacy, specifically, accessing its users' hard disk information off their computer (Brandt).

The hardware that make up the internet and there for the web are massive data banks of servers these servers are all over the world and hold a vas amount of data this data this data is all stored on there hard drives with some data banks can hold up to hundreds of terabytes of data in one location this data is used to make up webpages that we can view and buy thing from and they are all linked together so that they can share information. This forms what we call the web as we know it.

The Silk Road was one of the most popular darknet sites that dealt mostly with drugs. In an interview with Alex Winter, the director of Deep Web a documentary about the deep web and the Silk Road. he said that the community needed a substance to draw people in, but they seemed to stick around for the ideals the website set up (4). During the documentary there was an interview with Dread Pirate Roberts, the supposed leader of Silk Road, where he explained, “What we’re doing isn’t about scoring drugs or sticking it to the man, it’s about standing up for our right as human beings and refusing to submit when we’ve done no wrong. Silk Road is a vehicle for that message. All else is secondary,” (5). In the same documentary many anonymous interviews were done with people associated with Silk Road. One interviewee states that the site had threads with, “great political and philosophical discussions,” (5). He also points out that although illegal things were happening, the site itself was a community for like minded people to come and discuss things that maybe they would not be allowed to, or they would not want to, if others knew their true identity. The Dread Pirate Roberts wrote on one of the posts, “Silk Road was founded on libertarian principles.” This user even created a book club where they would have in depth discussions on Austrian economics and free market

The Internet is an overall informational tool, but the Internet contains search engines such as: Google, Bing, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, etc., that will give you websites, databases, organizations, etc., that will give you information on almost anything imaginable. And when it

The Internet is vast. To the casual user, the Internet represents the collection of those websites accessible via search engines such as Google or Bing. Search engines function by utilization of a web crawler which locates and indexes linked pages that are then provided as search results when it meets a particular search’s criteria. But, those web crawlers are only able to identify static pages, leaving out the dynamic pages of the deep web. Imagine a commercial fishing trawler on the open ocean pulling in its catch. The trawler only gathers fish from just barely below the surface and misses the massive

The Internet can also be defined as a worldwide collection of networks that links computers of millions of businesses, government agencies, educational institutions and individuals.

Search engines got their grip on the internet in the early 1990s, the most popular of them being browsers such as Google or Bing. These websites channel information

The Dark Web better known as Tor is a layer of the online world that is less visible than the online websites unlike Google, Yahoo, or any other common search engines on the world-wide web. The Dark Web refers to a hidden aspect of the internet designed to remain invisible to the public eye by any means necessary. It is a multi-platform web viewer that relies on passing through a series of encrypted tunnels to and between Tor routers that are run by volunteers and organizations around the world.

Public internet access can be found in most libraries or internet cafes. Internet Service Providers offer access to individuals in their homes as well as schools and businesses. To begin with, I utilized a popular website, Ask Jeeves http://ask.com, to help locate a definition of what exactly is the internet. “The Internet, sometimes called simply ‘The Net,’ is a

The Dark Web is a term that is referred to specifically as a collection of websites that are publicly visible, but hide the IP addresses (Location) of the servers that run them. Thus they can be visited by any web user, but it is very difficult to work out who is behind and using the sites. And you cannot find these sites using any regular search engines such as google. Almost all sites on the Dark Web hide their identity and IP address using the Tor encryption tool. You can use Tor to hide your identity, and spoof your location. When a website is run through Tor it has much the same effect.

As technology has propelled forward in our exploration of knowledge relating to computers and their science it is understandable that there are still areas of this field which may yet remain unexplored. One particular field being the Dark Web, which has been defined as an area of the deep web which has, “been intentionally hidden and is therefore inaccessible through standard [web] browsers.” (Brightplanet.) Although this web has evolved over the course of many years, possibly dating back to the 1990s and the development of onion routing, it has advanced itself into an industry which no one could have ever predicted. Further as well delve deeper into this developmental occurrence known as the Dark Web, I feel that we must ask ourselves how this has evolved into what we know it as today and whether or not it represents our future or past in dealing with the internet activities.

This lack of understanding causes fear and a personal defense from utilizing "the web" and all the possibilities that lie within it. In essence, the concept behind the World Wide Web is really quite simple. It is nothing more than "a community of information sites on the Internet computer network" (Pasadena Public Library). So basically, the World Wide Web is a small part of a greater entity—the Internet. The sites, or web pages, are all connected by this network and can be considered a community because of their common location-the World Wide Web. If you can visualize it, imagine a large network, the Internet, which connects people and information all over the world. Then imagine within that network, a community of its own. The World Wide Web has an endless number of sites, made of web pages, and all of which are connected through the Internet.
