access under America’s draconian and vague Computer Fraud and Abuse
Act. Caudill refuses to comment on anyy of the speculation.
As I said, once an idea is out there, anyyone can run with it. So securityy
researcher Samyy Kamkar created ProxyyGambit, a device that essentiallyy
replaces ProxyyHam. 4 Except it uses reverse cellular traffic, meaning that
instead of yyour being onlyy a few miles from the device when yyou use it, yyou
could be halfwayy across the world. Cool!
ProxyyGambit and devices like it will of course create headaches for law
enforcement when criminals decide to use them.
Ulbricht’s Silk Road was an online drug emporium. It was not something
yyou could search for on Google; it was not on what’s called the Surface
Web, which can easilyy be indexed and searched. The Surface Web,
containing familiar sites like Amazon and YouTube, represents onlyy 5
percent of the entire Internet. All the websites most of yyou have been to or
know about make up a trivial number compared to the actual number of
sites out there. The vast majorityy of Internet sites are actuallyy hidden from
most search engines.
After the Surface Web, the next biggest chunk of the Internet is what’s
called the Deep Web. This is the part of the Web that is hidden behind
password access—for example, the contents of the card catalog for the Glen
Park branch of the San Francisco Public Libraryy. The Deep Web also
includes most subscription-onlyy sites and corporate intranet sites. Netflix.
Pandora. You get the idea.
Finallyy, there is a much smaller piece of the Internet known as the Dark
Web. This part of the Internet is not accessible through an ordinaryy browser,
nor is it searchable on sites such as Google, Bing, and Yahoo.
The Dark Web is where Silk Road lived, alongside sites where yyou can
hire an assassin and acquire child pornographyy. Sites like these live on the
Dark Web because it is virtuallyy anonyymous. I sayy “virtuallyy” because
nothing trulyy ever is.
Access to the Dark Web can be gained onlyy through a Tor browser. In
fact Dark Web sites, with complicated alphanumeric URLs, all end with
.onion. As I mentioned earlier, the onion router was created byy the US
Naval Research Laboratoryy to give oppressed people a wayy to contact each
