Abstract

Search engines do not show the content of deep web. Since deep web pages are not indexed their accessibility is not possible using regular search engines such as "Google". The Dark Web, on the other hand, is mostly available publicly -if the user knows the ways to find it, because it exists on an alternate layer of the internet. Such alternate layer enables the individuals to breed anonymity. Websites hosted on Dark Web can be used for both good and bad purposes. Dark Web has been used for criminal activities such as the distribution of child pornography, hacking rings, money laundering, and sales of weapons and drugs. It has major effect leading to illegal activities which are very difficult to trace. Although the business created by hidden services is estimated to be in millions. Fighting Narco-terrorism and to keep a check on the distribution of substance of abuse and illegal drugs online is the need of the hour. Thus, the present paper explores availability of drugs online and laws breached. Since, it is important to adapt new ways and techniques to counter drug addiction. It is important to make sure that the history of Silk Route is not repeated.
