The exceptionally warped genius behind that drug-dealing and murderous internet site was a Canadian who lived for six years in Bangkok. It operated in the part of the internet known as "dark" because the websites shield themselves from detection. The young Canadian died on the eve of his first extradition hearing in the Criminal Court. The darknet sites are particularly odious and dangerous drug traffickers because of their policies to sell anything to anyone. The best-known previous criminal site was Silk Road, and German police closed two such sites and arrested their guru, internet alias Shiny-Flakes.
