German police officials have arrested four individuals suspected of selling drugs on the darknet. Keeping in mind how government officials and law enforcement agencies are cracking down on deep web users all over the country, this news is not entirely surprising. All four arrested individuals were active on a German darknet forum.
Buying and selling drugs is illegal, and the darknet is no exception to this rule. Then again, the Internet has facilitated this type of illegal business on a global scale. Ever since Silk Road came around, there has been an explosion in the number of darknet marketplaces all over the world.
