Back to School!

Two weeks have already passed as a third year Information Technology Student, and all I can say is that things are starting to get harder. Mini projects every quarter that are equivalent to a four quarter thesis project (if compared to the project we did last year). It's an early warning for me, a sign that I should step up my game in studying because elements like time pressure and advanced lessons are starting to appear. Being in school is not enough, so I have to study more at home when I have free time. Considering that I should achieve the 1.50 mark this semester, it's going to be tough, but I'm prepared for the nightmares to come :D

This is the path I've chosen and my passion. So fighting! :D

Downright Disturbing: The Deep Web

I heard and I have noticed that there is something that spreaded like wildfire in social networking sites and the internet as a whole: The Deep Web. I believe that this "Deep Web" curiosity was kickstarted by a movie-documentary that is also called "Deep Web". So what is this thing? Deep Web is actually a top level secured site that is only accessible by using some methods like having TOR browser, proxy, etc. These sites are not searchable by search engines and the domain is .onion. 

In the image above, you can get an idea that the deep web is not the usual and why it is "deep" and unsearchable by normal means. The deep web is actually a sanctuary or haven for sick people. A sick domain made for equally sick people. It's the underground scene of the internet. Buying and selling of drugs, child porn, gore, human experiments, grotesque scenes from World War II, in short: psycho stuff. Traversing this "hidden" side of the internet should be also done with caution. Why? Because once you enter an onion site, you will be on the watchlist of the FBI. This is where becoming anonymous and the use of proxies become important. That's all I can say, and I'm not going to tell how to enter the onion world. If you want to, though, try searching google.
