The Darkest Web: Drugs, Death and Destroyed Lives... The Inside Story of the Internet's Evil Twin by Eileen Ormsby
5.0
when I started reading this book I was maybe a little callous, thinking that I had a strong enough stomach to handle the contents. I was not correct.
the first section is a discussion and history of the Silk Road, and it’s interesting to see how behind the bluster and bravado, the tough guys we’re just kinda nerdy dipshits
in the second chapter, the tough guys turned out to be nerdy dipshits, except for the nerdy dipshit who turned out to be extremely cold blooded
the last chapter is, bluntly, an indictment on the human race. it’s a very, very hard read. to quote the author
“Nevertheless it is safe to say that I never want to return to that part of the dark web again. I wish I could say that I exaggerated the horrors but if anything, I sanitised them”
