00:00.720 --> 00:06.930
Now, before wrapping up this section, I want to draw your attention to something that is very, very

00:06.930 --> 00:07.800
important.

00:08.010 --> 00:12.600
In many countries, using darknet markets is illegal.

00:12.630 --> 00:17.460
Even if you buy legal goods or if you're paying for legal services.

00:17.580 --> 00:25.160
The reason for this is a lot of darknet markets also include illegal goods and illegal services.

00:25.170 --> 00:33.570
So if you're using a market that offers illegal services in many countries, using this market is illegal

00:33.600 --> 00:36.270
even if you're buying legal goods.

00:36.270 --> 00:44.190
And the reason for that is you'll be considered that you're aiding a criminal organization or an organization

00:44.190 --> 00:47.130
that is involved in criminal activity.

00:47.610 --> 00:50.310
Now, this is not the same for all countries, like I said.

00:50.310 --> 00:56.070
So you want to check with your country and you can always just use normal darknet markets that just

00:56.070 --> 00:59.310
don't offer illegal services and illegal goods.

00:59.430 --> 01:05.100
Unfortunately, these are hard to find, but I just wanted to get this idea across.

01:05.820 --> 01:12.150
Now, throughout all the previous lectures and sections, we learned a number of things and I try to

01:12.150 --> 01:19.020
cover them as isolated modules so you can plug them in whenever you need to use them.

01:19.230 --> 01:22.230
So we learned how to access the Internet anonymously.

01:22.230 --> 01:24.260
We learned how to access the darknet.

01:24.270 --> 01:29.460
We learned how to discover darknet services or hidden services or online services.

01:29.460 --> 01:36.900
We learned how to communicate privately and anonymously using anonymous email providers, using private

01:36.900 --> 01:38.190
instant messaging.

01:38.190 --> 01:40.560
We learned how to add end to end encryption.

01:40.560 --> 01:46.620
We learned how to use BGP, we learned how to share files anonymously and so on.

01:46.620 --> 01:54.120
So you can use any of these skills depending on the situation that you're in, because I can't imagine

01:54.120 --> 01:58.040
all of the possible uses that you want to use these skills for.

01:58.050 --> 02:04.530
For example, you can be a security researcher simply researching what's happening on the net, or you

02:04.530 --> 02:10.650
can be a journalist trying to communicate with your colleagues anonymously because you have some sensitive

02:10.650 --> 02:11.670
information.

02:11.670 --> 02:14.010
So the possibilities are endless.

02:14.010 --> 02:20.400
But in my opinion, the skills that I covered so far can be used to do pretty much anything that you

02:20.400 --> 02:22.200
want to do on the darknet.

02:22.740 --> 02:29.580
So you should even be able to use them to buy goods if you wanted to, as long as what you're doing

02:29.580 --> 02:31.440
is legal in your country.

02:31.650 --> 02:36.870
Because I've taught you how to create an email and you will need an email when you're signing up with

02:36.870 --> 02:37.980
marketplaces.

02:37.980 --> 02:43.890
I taught you how to communicate using PGP and you will need to use that when you're communicating with

02:43.890 --> 02:44.520
sellers.

02:44.520 --> 02:51.030
And I taught you how to obtain cryptocurrency, send it and receive it, and again, you'll need that

02:51.030 --> 02:52.980
to pay for services and goods.

02:53.100 --> 02:58.770
So like I said, again, this is one example, one use of the skills that I taught you, but they can

02:58.770 --> 03:05.820
be used to pretty much do anything you want on the darknet, or if you just simply want to use the Internet

03:05.820 --> 03:08.790
in a more private and more anonymous manner.
