Summary

From sex trafficking and fraud to government secrets and anonymous hacking groups, this definitive exploration and exposé of the dark web goes where no documentary has gone before. 

The anonymous and lawless online environment of the Dark Web makes headlines on a daily basis. It touches all of our lives, without our knowledge, in many different ways. But where do the myths end and reality begin? 

Tech writer and broadcaster Geoff White (Channel 4 News) wants to find out. He casts an investigatory light on the dark underworld of the internet. We join him on a shocking tour of its secrets, revealing corporate hackers, paedophile rings, fraud on an international scale, conspiracy theories, drug dealers, gun runners, spies and specialist police investigators. 

Driven by undercover recordings, anonymous contributors and expert interviews, this in-depth, journalistically-rigorous current affairs investigation leaves no online stone unturned in its quest for the truth.

Incredibly informative

Whilst giving an amazing insight, this podcast series doesn’t have the best audio quality, and it take away from the overall effect

Fascinating and frightening

It’s pretty clear from this expose by Geoff White that legitimate business has been bastardised by - and in some ways owes its origins to - the Dark Web and the people who conduct their dealings on there.
Governments and major global organisations are also implicit in its growth and activity especially as it was basically the need for anonymity among spies that even spawned this!
Astonishing.

Dreadfully simplistic tabloid journalism.

Complete waste of ones time. Very frustrating. Worst audible purchases I have made to date.

A good introduction to the Dark Web

Starts off by the history as to how and why the Dark Web came about and how it has been used and abused.
