  • Ep. 2: The Untold Story of The Dark Web
    Feb 8 2018

    [Contains explicit content] The Dark Web's first success story was a drugs 'eBay.' Vendors sold narcotics and pharmaceuticals directly to each other freely and anonymously. Then the FBI shut it down and unmasked its owner, Ross Ulbricht. The sting operation was ridiculous.

    Geoff White, Channel 4 News's former Technology Reporter, speaks with a key player at the heart of the takedown. His story is astonishing.

Very well written and keeps you interested

This was a well written book/podcast series. opens up a new world, and clears up misconceptions about the dark web. Audio performance is great although, I could do without the background coffee shop noises in some segments

Amazing story on the life of the dark web!

What an amazing story! Very gripping, enticing and informational. Put together very well overall. I would of liked more information on how to get on the dark web and how to stay safe from hackers but regardless of my personal views it was a very well told story of the the birth and life of the Darkweb.

Interesting and informative.

I have a fascination with the dark web and I found this very informative. it explored both the good and bad sides, the episodes are broken up in a way thats easy to digest in 30 minutes each or less with still giving each episode topic enough time that I didnt feel like it was rushed or dragged on. It also followed a good flow, the main narrator/journalist did a great job and the interviews I feel asked great questions. Great listen and would recommend.

Great series, but last episode is boring

Enjoyed the series, but this last episode is boring. Just a bunch of people rambling, not really telling much if a story

Interesting, intriguing foray into the Dark Web

A very fascinating series about The Dark Web, who's using it, why it's important to know about, and some of its history. Discusses other topics such as cryptocurrencies. Short episodes of about 20 minutes.
