The Most Illegal Business In The World: Silk Road
THE INSANE STORY OF SILK ROAD - The illegal online marketplace on the darkweb, where you can buy ANYTHING imagine... Welcome to: "A Journey Into The Dark Web: The INSANE Story of Silk Road".
Beneath the normal internet we all know - like YouTube, Facebook, and Google - there lies the dark web - an anonymous unregulated world, with websites not accessible from search engines, a hidden corner of the internet where anything goes. For a while, the biggest site on the dark web was Silk Road, an online black market for all kinds of illegal goods and services. But what’s perhaps most surprising of all about this, is who was behind this illegal empire. Meet Ross Ulbricht, Silk Road's creator. Ross grew up in a loving family in Texas. He was a boy scout as a kid, studied physics at university, and was thought of as a very sweet guy by all his friends and family. So, imagine their shock, when they realized Ross was the criminal mastermind behind the largest online drug empire in history, responsible for over $1.2 billion dollars worth of sales of illegal goods and services. Not just that, but this sweet kid had reportedly paid hit men to kill his enemies.… Or, did he? To this day there is debate over whether Ross is guilty or not.
In this Silk Road documentary, we’re going to dive into the murky world of the dark web and explore the true story behind the infamous Silk Road marketplace. We’re also going to look at how the government really managed to track down Ross, despite the fact that Ross was using the Tor browser which made him completely anonymous. How do you find someone who can’t be tracked? This is a true story filled with mysteries, twists and even a couple of corrupt government agents. Welcome to the fascinating story of the Silk Road website on the dark web. (aka: The Story Of SILK ROAD: A Journey Into The Dark Web - How They Caught The Silk Road Kingpin by MagnatesMedia).

I am not a journalist and this video relies on secondary sources. Whilst every effort has been made to fact check those sources, this silk road video is classified as 'edutainment' and should not be considered a professional documentary. The history of Silk Road and the legal issues surrounding it are complex and nuanced, so I strongly encourage you to do your own research on the subject. (One of the most influential sources in creating this video was the book 'American Kingpin' by Nick Bilton, which I recommend checking out for further reading on the silk road story).
