THE INSANE STORY OF SILK ROAD - The illegal online marketplace on the darkweb, where you can buy ANYTHING imagine... Welcome to: "A Journey Into The Dark Web: The INSANE Story of Silk Road".
Beneath the normal internet we all know - like RU-vid, Facebook, and Google - there lies the dark web - an anonymous unregulated world, with websites not accessible from search engines, a hidden corner of the internet where anything goes. For a while, the biggest site on the dark web was Silk Road, an online black market for all kinds of illegal goods and services. But what’s perhaps most surprising of all about this, is who was behind this illegal empire. Meet Ross Ulbricht, Silk Road's creator. Ross grew up in a loving family in Texas. He was a boy scout as a kid, studied physics at university, and was thought of as a very sweet guy by all his friends and family. So, imagine their shock, when they realized Ross was the criminal mastermind behind the largest online drug empire in history, responsible for over $1.2 billion dollars worth of sales of illegal goods and services. Not just that, but this sweet kid had reportedly paid hit men to kill his enemies.… Or, did he? To this day there is debate over whether Ross is guilty or not.
In this Silk Road documentary, we’re going to dive into the murky world of the dark web and explore the true story behind the infamous Silk Road marketplace. We’re also going to look at how the government really managed to track down Ross, despite the fact that Ross was using the Tor browser which made him completely anonymous. How do you find someone who can’t be tracked? This is a true story filled with mysteries, twists and even a couple of corrupt government agents. Welcome to the fascinating story of the Silk Road website on the dark web. (aka: The Story Of SILK ROAD: A Journey Into The Dark Web - How They Caught The Silk Road Kingpin by MagnatesMedia).

I am not a journalist and this video relies on secondary sources. Whilst every effort has been made to fact check those sources, this silk road video is classified as 'edutainment' and should not be considered a professional documentary. The history of Silk Road and the legal issues surrounding it are complex and nuanced, so I strongly encourage you to do your own research on the subject. (One of the most influential sources in creating this video was the book 'American Kingpin' by Nick Bilton, which I recommend checking out for further reading on the silk road story).

Hey legends, I’m sure some of you are familiar with the history of Silk Road already, but honestly the full in-depth story is fascinating. It just keeps getting crazier the more it goes on. 😅 Anyway, I really hope you enjoy. And if you do, I highly recommend checking out this video afterwards: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eDbge9-aqmc.html (it’s the story of the Bitcoin billionaires, and ties in very nicely with the story of Silk Road!) Finally, big thanks to Guardio for sponsoring this video. Security is one of those things you often don’t properly think about until it's too late. So do yourself a favour and take advantage of Guardio’s special deal for MagnatesMedia viewers & keep your browser and personal info secure: guard.io/MagnatesMedia EDIT: I'm sure you already know this, but if someone replies to your comment with any sort of number / link / contact info etc, it's a scam. There's lots of fake accounts using my logo / name pretending to be me, but it's completely fake.

Rex Tom, FBI Director of Investigative Publicity, stated in 2006 about the FBI's position: “The FBI gathers evidence. Once evidence is gathered, it is turned over to the Department of Justice. The Department of Justice then decides whether it has enough evidence to present to a federal grand jury. In the case of the 1998 United States Embassies being bombed, bin Laden has been formally indicted and charged by a grand jury. He has not been formally indicted and charged in connection with 9/11 because the FBI has no hard evidence connecting bin Laden to 9/11.”

lol. That's great. All jokes aside....when it comes to drugs it's kinda on each person to know their own limits and to be careful. You can't possibly regulate everyone from doing what they are going to do. If they don't order drugs on silk road they will order or find them somewhere else if they so choose. The "war on drugs" is the perfect example of this. Drug use and incarceration rates have gone up and up since the government has gone after it more and more. They literally create the problem they claim to want to solve with these policies. It's quite literally crazy to try and stop people from wanting to experience a high of some sort or another. It's embedded in our genetics to do so.

I've heard this story from several channels by now, but this one is truly most captivating! For one, the host allows himself to treat the person in question as protagonist instead of being slicky about it, and so the viewer can understand the story on more levels, including compassion. In modern days almost all media outlets act as if they're judges instead of journalists, attaching their judgement to everything they say, trying to push one or another agenda. It became really rare when human beings are treated as human beings and facts are given as is, without staining (or outright spoiling) them with the politically "correct" tint. Good job.

It’s also pretty important to note that this dude wasn’t very smart, he chose to work on the world’s most illegal website in libraries and cafes lol; the only reason I actually do question the “ip leak” is because it is said that he had real and specialized developers verifying his code and helping him improve it, that’s where my doubts lie.

Correction: you could not buy/sell items that weren't drugs. Otherwise your item would be shut down from the inventory. The rumor that you could buy such items or services were most likely made from confusion over other websites similar to the Silk road that would have no limits on what could be sold/buy.

This story is so crazy and interesting, I heard about Silk Road around the time Ross was arrested but I didn’t know all the crazy details until watching this. I definitely think those crooked agents should’ve gotten much more longer sentences for the part they played. Great job with the production and details of this video and this case

Rex Tom, FBI Director of Investigative Publicity, stated in 2006 about the FBI's position: “The FBI gathers evidence. Once evidence is gathered, it is turned over to the Department of Justice. The Department of Justice then decides whether it has enough evidence to present to a federal grand jury. In the case of the 1998 United States Embassies being bombed, bin Laden has been formally indicted and charged by a grand jury. He has not been formally indicted and charged in connection with 9/11 because the FBI has no hard evidence connecting bin Laden to 9/11.”

I've always felt like the sentence Ross was handed was pretty steep. I could definitely see 20 years then parole... But life with no parole is pretty brutal. That's just my take anyway... It's a very fascinating story and I've recently read the book "American Kingpin" which covers this entire case very thoroughly. Good video. New subscriber! 👍

There is a missing girl, 26 years old, and she was missing in a very strange way. When her mother went to look for her, the policemen and the FBI were not cooperative, on the contrary, they wanted to hide the evidence, and even the lawyers were rejecting this case, and they also found the remains of the bones of this girl, but not complete. The skull was separated from the spine, and they did not find the whole bones, and the details of the story are very shocking. We want justice for this girl, Jawaher Al-Hajji.

I live in Miami, I don’t consume drugs, I’m not even sure how legal it is here, but I see plenty of stores around the city selling weed (or at least weed equivalents like Delta 8). What is the difference between that and this Silk Road? Timing is everything in life.

It’s legal here to use and carry and sell.
