Darknet networks as a way of protecting internet users' privacy

In this age when information technologies became inseparable parts of our lives we can hardly imagine for example living without internet. There is a phenomenon connected with internet and that is large scale collection of data about internet users and their activities. Because of this fact, it is important to protect our internet privacy as a very important aspect of our lives. This work examines large scale collection of data about users internet activities. During this work, different methods and reasons for this largescale data collection are examined. Later, different ways how internet users are protected by law or how they can protect themselves are examined. One of the ways how internet users can protect their internet privacy is by using so-called anonymizing networks connected with a phenomenon called Darknet. This work examines if it is possible by ordinary internet users to adapt this method of internet privacy protection.
