854jamiebartlett

The dark net is not going to remain dark for long – more people are going to use it for various good, bad and mundane reasons, and the distinction between the dark net and the normal internet will slowly disappear.

Technology researcher Jamie Bartlett explores the darkest parts of the internet, from assassination markets to platforms for emerging democratic activists, and explains why anonymity and internet freedom will be political and social issues for generations to come.

Jamie is author of the book The Dark Net: Inside the Digital Underworld.
