Secret websites that can only be accessed through a special browser offer a glimpse of the internet\u2019s seedy underbelly. Anything from cocaine to machine guns is available at the click of a button on the Dark Web.<\/p>\n

Podcasters Ashton Bingham & Art Kulik interviewed cyber security expert Ryan \u2018Zero Day\u2019 Montgomery. He showed them how to easily obtain hacked PayPal accounts, with large cash balances, can be bought for a fraction of their true value, along with guns, hard drugs and stolen credit cards.<\/p>\n

And, he explains, the criminals selling these goods \u2013 and worse \u2013 are almost completely immune from prosecution. He said: \u201cThe people that run these websites \u2026 some of them are very experienced in anonymising themselves\u201d. Occasionally, the parcels with the illegal goods will be intercepted en route, but the sellers are almost impossible to trace.<\/p>\n

One of the sites Art and Ashton look at is called \u201cCarne Human Meat,\u201d and promises to sell packages of flesh to would-be cannibals. The website reads \u201cwe collect our meat mainly from morgues\u2026 road accidents are our guilty pleasure\u201d.<\/p>\n

The horrified podcasters read out the rest of the sales pitch. \u201cWe think everyone should taste human once in his or her life because it's yourself, it's knowledge. We deeply think eating human is not immoral as long as we don't kill them\u201d.<\/p>\n

Living human organs are also on the menu, with traders offering livers, kidneys and even hearts for transport \u2013 with no questions asked about where they came from. \u201cYou just provide your medical data and we will find a matching donor,\u201d the organ peddlers promise.<\/p>\n
