When you hear the world "darknet," what do you think of? I’ve found that if I ask 3 different people this question, I’ll get 3 different answers—all with different assumptions. Encountering this phenomena made me curious. So, I went looking for the cause. And, the answer I came up with was (drum roll please): confusion! Big and small. Thus, to do my little part in righting this wrong, this presentation will walk through common misconceptions about the darknet from concepts to technologies (and hopefully leave attendees *less* confused :-).
