As an introductory computer programmer, I have long heard of the dark web. In order to avoid tracing, many gray or illegal transactions are carried out on the dark web. The anonymity of Bitcoin and other virtual currencies makes these transactions easier (it is said that before this They only accept cash), buying and selling personal data, these are all pediatrics, similar to the kind of large companies that are taken out of the library and then sold in blocks. This is the most basic transaction.
The movie probably shows us a controlled network. In such a network age, the insecurity caused by the proliferation of personal information is really not sensational. Most of the operations such as network hijacking in the movie can be achieved. Control Your computer, turn on the camera, automatically send videos to someone, cut off the network, and monitor your every move. In theory, these are all possible, so it makes sense not to post your children’s photos online.
The part that makes me feel cold on my back is:
Many videos uploaded by AJ personally on youtube were edited and turned into a voice, and then used this voice to tell 911 that he was going to a large shopping mall to engage in a terrorist attack, and then the police came to the house and called for him outside the door. I was about to open the door. At this time, the sound of the gun being loaded on the computer was played out through the audio. The police heard the sound of the gun being loaded outside the door, and shot at the door without hesitation. AJ was beaten into a sieve. All this, you have no way, the dark web kills a person so easily.
I think of a movie "Who Am I-Kein System ist sicher (2014)" that I have recommended before . It is very good. This one is more pure I talk about the dark web, and it also adds a lot of new elements, such as Blockchain virtual currency.
What I want to say is that the dark web really exists, and what is said in the movie is not completely impossible fiction. This is what makes people feel the most scary.
This is not just a horror movie, maybe it is true.
