Summary


Privacy is becoming more and more important, as there are almost unlimited ways in which information is being collected about us. In some areas, it's regulated in some manner (GDPR in the EU, for example), in others, privacy is non-existent.

The UN has tried to standardize human rights, including the right to privacy (Article 12 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights).

The following screenshot displays the UN site with the declaration:

The Dark Web is the great equalizer. A way to go online without giving up on our privacy.

 It is the beginning of a revolution that will put our privacy at its center.

 

 

So in the future, more and more people will use it, to be able to communicate, consume content, purchase or sell goods, and more, with a high level of anonymity.

In the future, the Dark Web will be the anonymous communication medium.

Look out for it.
