Amber Rudd to announce crackdown on dark web
- ttul 9y agoI dearly hope they focus on dark web use that is associated with actual harm, but in all likelihood they will focus on attention grabbing drug busts.
- Arubis 9y ago“A dark and dangerous place where anonymity emboldens people to break the law in the most horrifying of ways. A platform of dangerous crimes and horrific abuse. A sickening shopping list of services and products are available.” I’d just go ahead and count on scare tactics.

- crowbahr 9y agoShe talks a very big talk there about cracking down on "the dark web" but reading between the lines it seems like they really only are implementing more officers to help with local victims of fraud. The non local officers might be doing something more (perhaps stings or something) but this mainly looks like a lot of polish around allotting a very small amount of money (9m pounds is not very much for a nation) for a handful of extra officers to help fraud victims.
