Dark Net

My god, this show is full of whining. The worst was the "bad" porn people. This show does nothing but say the internet is terrible place and we should all run away from it. Sad, waste of a show.

Watched the whole first season. This show is more of a left-wing political message than having much to do with the dark net. Only one or two episodes even talked about the dark net. Wouldn't recommend to anyone. So tired of misleading titles. Talks about defunding the police, and lack of access to mental health services... how does this have anything to do with the Dark Net? Sure, people seek things out on social media because of lack of access. That isn't the Dark Net. Change the title to something that expresses how the internet is bad, but that is different from what is known as the dark net.

By the title of the documentary, I expected something more focused on issues such as cybercrime, hackers, deep web. Contents and scenarios unknown to us, who don't inhabit the most bizarre and dangerous corners of the internet. The documentary presents a mix of episodes that range from subjects to obscure, bizarre, problematic issues, and how technology will evolve and grow in the next years. Nothing too deep, but enough to show us how much the internet is a double-edged sword, in the hands of those who use it. The problem is not the internet itself, but rather how people in the world use it.

On first look the series stood out as something new, and I thought it was going to shed some light on the real Dark Net. But ho-hum this a bunch of fringe stories we have already heard of before, and there is little attention given to the subject that the series draws it's tille from.

There is no real in-depth documentary making here. Each episode is in case study format, but being constrained to 30mins there is no room to explore those burning questions. I couldn't help but feel short changed and uninterested.

Documentaries work best when they answer the So-what? question, but when you end up thinking Who cares? then probably no one else cares either...

Based on watching first 2 episodes of season one... Stories about anything but the dark net. Everything they show you can google. Reminds me of the words of a great philosopher, who's name I cannot remember... I don't think that word means what you think it means.
