In the 1980s, with the birth and development of the modern web, the dark and deep web experienced a revival and was once used prominently for activities which did not want to be tracked. ]]> 2020-02-21 16:49:52 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448693949 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448894228 Although the creator of the Dark Web, Charley Kline, was allowed to have some control of the Dark Web for a limited time, the Federal government eventually overtook his authority and began to monitor activity. Overall, it is safe to say that the main leadership role of the dark web is mostly done by dangerous criminals and the US government. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:10:58 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448894228 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448894876 Although going on the dark web isn't strictly illegal, much of the activity happening on the web is illegal. Nearly all illegal activities are done over the dark web due to the animosity and lack of extreme government tracking of the web. The government does not have the technology nor the labor to continuously scan the dark web and prevent the sheet number of crimes occurring. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:15:24 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448894876 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448895838 The dark web is done in all languages since it is accessed throughout the whole world. However, most of it is English, with Chinese, Russian and other Asian dialects following. The dark web is a diverse community and does not really have a known set of symbols by which most of the people associate with. However, a few things that normal people associate with the dark web are a black hoodie, green lines of 0s and 1s along with extremely skilled programmers. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:21:59 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448895838 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448896482 The dark web is very diverse and accessible by anyone, so therefore does not have an economic or political structure. However, usually the most powerful in the dark web are the people who do the most illegal activities to scam the most people. However, for the political structure, the government is at the very top since it technically monitors the web but cannot do much about it except in certain cases. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:27:23 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448896482 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448897245 Obviously, technology is heavily required to access the dark web. It is surprisingly not very difficult to access the dark web and browse the content. All a person needs to have a capable browser, such as Tor browser, which can access it. However, once you get on, your information can easily be stolen if you do not have a strong antivirus or a powerful VPN. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:33:09 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448897245 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448897521 The dark web generally does not have any problems with specific groups except for the US government and the people's information they are trying to steal. Basically, on the dark web, it is survival of the fittest]]> 2020-02-22 00:35:36 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448897521 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448897943 Material - The dark web does not really have many material things it values, but in the dark web community, computers of any kind are valued. 
Non-Material - The dark web also does not really have non material aspects to it, but some examples which could apply could be VPNs, Anti-viruses and the idea of rebellion against the establishment. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:38:50 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448897943 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448898363 Folkways - The original intent of the dark web was to be a communication network between computers in the 1960s. It was expected to be a very professional environment unlike what it is today. 
Mores & laws - Nowadays, it is unusual to access the dark web without buying or selling in an illegal way. It is expected that anyone who is accessing the dark or deep web is probably doing something illegal. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:41:48 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448898363 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448899350 The functional perspective is not really obvious in the dark web culture except for the way in which individual browsers and the government interact. The government cannot do much about what happens, so the browsers are able to exploit the government. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:48:50 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448899350 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448899778 The people who are on the dark web often compete with each other for resources. Since most of it is illegal, there is often high demand for ridiculously low products. The government also competes with the people to catch them but are often unsuccessful. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:52:27 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448899778 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448900146 The dark web is not full of many symbols since it is such a diverse culture but there are a few symbols such as the use of VPNs and anti-viruses which represent safety and precaution from the government along with the pride of rebellion. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:55:13 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448900146 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448900580 People on the dark web often view themselves as a superior group of people since they have access to the most illegal things on the planet without any fear of consequence. If they were to interact with regular users, often times, a dark web user would clearly display ethnocentric qualities. ]]> 2020-02-22 00:58:08 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448900580 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448900993 The people on the dark web believe that their practices, customs and beliefs should be understood by the normal society and would strongly advocate for their practices to become legal. ]]> 2020-02-22 01:00:41 UTC https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448900993 vdayal1 https://padlet.com/vdayal1/gbyc0rvds8iy/wish/448902617 https://www.dictionary.com/e/dark-web/
