The Wide Web : The Deep Dark Web

The Internet has proven itself to be helpful, but it can also be a scary place. When the Internet first emerged, it was difficult to gauge its full potential. The Internet was actually created as a “military communications network in the 1960s” (Campbell et al., 2016, p. 41). However, the Internet became a more integral part of society around the 21st century when it transformed into a hub of information and entertainment. The film, The Net, features the early years of the Internet and the dangers that came with it. This film took a radical stance about how the Internet can damage a person’s life. The film remains relevant today since it inspires paranoia regarding the fragile safety

21st century man has pondered in thought on a very important question that unconsciously affects their lives at every moment: Is the Internet our master, or a simple tool that we control? To the optimist, this very question is a complete joke. In their eyes, how can such a sweet, innocent tool of exploring specific evidence, paying one’s bill, and social networking become our master when we, as humans, created its very existence? To the skeptics, this question HAS to be answered. To them, it’s essential that we as a collective unit decide if the internet is controlling us so we can abandon it and have our mental capacities cleared up from

The year is 1998 I am sitting at my desk listening to a dial tone followed by a collection of strange beeps and screeches as my modem connects my desk top computer to the internet for the first time. This seeming long and complicated process was one of the most exciting experiences in this young adolescent girl’s life, it was the day I became Spiderman. Nineteen years later this same girl experiences internet in a very different way; there is no dial tone, no waiting on a connection, now the internet is an instant process that connects different types of devices to provide instant and nearly constant access to an entire virtual world known as the World Wide Web which we carry in the palm of our hands. We have the internet in our hands, on

The Internet is, quite literally, a network of networks. It is comprised of ten thousands of interconnected networks spanning the globe. The computers that form the Internet range from huge mainframes in research establishments to modest PCs in people's homes and offices. Despite the recent hype, the Internet is not a new phenomenon. Its roots lie in a collection of computers that were linked together in the 1970s to form the US Department of Defense's communications systems. Fearing the consequences of nuclear attack, there was no central computer holding vast amounts of data, rather the information was dispersed across thousands of machines. A set of rules, of protocols, known as TCP/IP was

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.

Reading the book “The Dark Net” by Jamie Bartlett, I was capable of reaching to the midpoint of the book. On pages 115-183 Jamie Bartlett describes the awful details that accord on the internet, and how many internet users are not aware of it. On pages 115-134 he describes how pornography has became more accessible for many people on the internet. Many internet users ages 20 and older visit, or manage to click on pop-up links that lead them to child/pornography websites. Bartlett had manages to make time and interview one of these website visitors Michael. Michael is in his fifties he is married and has a grown up daughter. As Bartlett described Michael had started to watch pornography occasionally in his twenties, but when it became a habit

The Internet is the global way of interconnected computer interfaces that use the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to link devices worldwide. It is an interface of networks that consists of individual, civic, academic, marketing, and government tracks of local to global scope, joined by a broad collection of electronic, wireless, and optical networking technologies. The Internet has changed continuation upside down. It was no longer a state-controlled outline, although the extensive computer network in the world including across 50,000 sub-networks, 4 million systems, and 70 million users. The Internet supports numerous network services, most prominently mobile apps such as social media apps,Internet telephony, the World Wide Web, multiplayer online games,electronic mail, and file sharing services. The internet is essentially a web

This paper will weigh the implications of Deep Packet Inspection and its effects on our network security and personal privacy. The Internet and network security are among the most important aspects of how people communicate with each other in the world today. With each leap toward the technological horizon, more threats and more solutions are implemented, and the systems on both sides are ever evolving. Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) is a type of security measure that goes beyond making sure the data packets we send get to their destination, and that they are the correct data packets. DPI dives deeper into the packet, and looks at the data portion, or the information contained within the packet. Along with added security, another factor comes into play: Privacy. Does the security of our data warrant the invasion of our privacy, whether we know about it or not?

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 Washington Post of: Net Insecurity, A Flaw in the Design, is an article written by Craig Timberg that goes into the detail and history of the Internet. In Timberg’s article he first begins with telling the story of how the internet’s “dark side” was discovered by the network engineer David Clark. Timberg then goes into detail describing the internet’s dark side, which is when he informs his readers about the Morris Worm, which is a virus that intentionally crashed the internet. The beginning stages of the internet began as a small community for researcher’s fieldwork that advanced into a network of about 3 million people, with various needs and uses. Timberg describes the branching of these new technological uses of the internet as; emailing, encryption coding, and the different ways of communication that was brought into the nation by war, business, and basic socialization. These technological advances of the

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.

The Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks that use the standard Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to serve billions of users worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of millions of private, public, academic, business, and government networks, of local to global scope, that are linked by a broad array of electronic, wireless and optical networking technologies. The Internet carries a vast range of information resources and services, such as the inter-linked hypertext documents of the World Wide Web (WWW) and the infrastructure to support electronic mail.
