The more I read about the "Deep Web", the more I become increasingly intrigued with the concept of this virtual underground world, hidden just beyond the finger tips of most regular internet surfers. This is honestly one of the coolest, yet scariest, things I have ever heard of in a long time. I am currently reading about Silk Road right now (as I read over some earlier conversations in this thread and got curious) and I am seriously blown away that something like this even exists. I mean, I shouldn't even be that surprised about it, but I always thought that the being completely annonymous on the internet was impossible, and that although things like this surely occured on the internet from time to time, that they could not possibly thrive and survive without being shut down by the police or something. This is so fascinating
What lengths must you go to in order to ensure that you remain annonymous and that your computer is
as secure as possible from malicious content? The Deep Web almost sounds like an open warzone, and if you go in there without the proper protection, that your a goner.
