The dark web is the infamous “hidden” side of the internet – hosting websites that can’t be found on Google and can only be accessed through special browsers.

Identities and locations of darknet users remain anonymous and cannot be tracked due to layered encryption systems, making it a hotbed for criminals.

Earlier this year, law enforcement around the world took down Genesis Market, an online marketplace that bought and sold hacked user data, in Operation Cookie Monster.
