Deep Web

The underlying message in this documentary is about seeking peace and avoiding violence... why do they interview and portray in a favourable way Cody Wilson, who, as far as I get it, is commercializing a DIY printable gun? Cody also speaks highly of Ross Ulbricht, whose goal seems to be eliminating the use of force in society. This contradicting aspect of the documentary I really didn't get. Having said this, Ulbricht's story seems heartwrecking and it doesn't sound like he had a fair trial.

Not heading to the Wizard of Oz, although I guess you will see a lot of colorful things if you go down that road. Actually it's a site where people sold drugs. But it was more than that. Sticking it to the man, making the public aware of how vulnerable we all are and how our privacy is being squashed everyday.

Unfortunately it is actually more concerned of uncovering the Silk Road thing and the trial that commenced out of it, than diving into the deep (web). So the title may feel a bit misleading, nevertheless an intriguing movie to watch. So if you are not too obsessed about learning what the Deep Web is (it might be too technical anyway), this movie delivers as a documentary. Some questions raised are really important! Let's see where we go from here ...

Some English major took the time to read the related Wikipedia pages. Than he read some of the blog footnotes. And boom! The guy is knowledgeable enough to talk about something that does not exist. There is nothing deep about the web. And there is nothing hidden. There are quite a few "hidden" networks in the Internet. And many intranet pages in local networks, that aren't on the Internet. Rehashing blogs seems to be good to get you good reviews through confirmation bias, in other words you scratch my back meaning I want to believe X and I will scratch yours meaning I will call you an expert. But rehashing blog pages does not mean knowledge.

Not just about The Silk Road, but also how government and media conspires to continue the hopeless War against Drugs, which itself perpetuates the breakdown of society and affects all our lives.

If you're looking for a movie about the Deep Web. This is not the movie for you. It was more about a guy getting screwed over by the government. It was nicely done and made it's point. But it never answered anything about the deep web. I was hoping for something other than the stuff that you can find on the web or you tube videos. As far as the government's war on drugs it's never going to win. People that want to get high are going to find a way to get high. It's just like if someone wants someone else dead it's going to happen and you can pass 1,000,000 new laws and it's not going to change a thing. I made my first rifle when I was 8 and that was without the Internet. Just a Public Library and the Dewey decimal system.
