How to Access Dark Web In a world of ambiguity, we often desire to have things described in terms of black and white. If you are looking for such a book on the dark web, we must apologize. There is no way to paint the dark web as a truly evil construct (as popular culture often does) or as a perfect bastion of freedom (though we might like it to be considered that way). We instead wrote this book with the aim to tell the truth and to tell it in a way that any reader can understand. It is more important to us, as the authors, to help promote informed, democratic discussion than to convince you to side with our personal beliefs. If you come out of reading this book with greater knowledge and appreciation but still believe the dark web is an evil utility, our job is well done. If you come out of reading this book with greater knowledge, appreciation, and support for the dark web, then all the better. You will notice that this book spends relatively little time talking about the people

There’s nothing like a car ride with federal agents to make you question your life choices. That was exactly where I found myself the morning of July 18, 2018, winding through the streets of Washington, DC, heading toward an interview with Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigators. My trip that morning consisted of riding in two cars, actually—the first took me to a coffee shop that the Department of Justice had randomly selected. This had been the driver’s instructions when I initially slid into the backseat: they had chosen a place unexpectedly, without planning it out or telling anyone beforehand. Then, once we were on our way, he was to radio in our destination. At the coffee shop, the second driver was waiting. Like the first driver, he was wearing a dark suit and dark glasses, but there was a second man with him as well. From the second car—outfitted like the first with tinted windows—I watched as the city’s gleaming monuments, bright and sudden and very white, flashed b

Let me give you a brief overview of Amazon ranking system and their algorithms. BSR, sales velocity and keyword indexing Don’t worry guys, we’ll go off the book as well and discuss some tricks as well. There are a few terms that you should be familiar with to get a complete understanding of this guide like BSR, Sales velocity, keyword indexing. Amazon’s ranking system is highly dependent upon sales velocity. Sales velocity is measured in percentage. If hundred customers land on your product page and from those hundred Customers, seven customers purchase your product then that means your product has 7% sales velocity. The product page that has high sales velocity will rank better and vice versa. The more number of Sales you get on your product ensures you higher rankings in the search results. Second thing that you need to understand is that your product should index on all relevant keywords so that it has maximum customer exposure. Amazon’s ranking is basically keyword ranking. Y

Netflix Inc. (NFLX) delivered first quarter global net subscriber additions of almost 15.8 million. A mind-blowing number of new subscribers for the company, considering Netflix had guided for 7 million subscribers when it reported results in January. The company saw a clear one-time benefit from the impacts of the coronavirus, with many countries issuing shelter-in-place guidance. Despite the big beat, the share may be heading lower. The massive subscriber growth in the first quarter may have come at the expense of future quarters. The company described it best in the shareholder letter, noting that some of the first quarter growth was probably pulled forward due to the lock-down effects of the coronavirus. As obvious as that may sound, it also means subscriber growth is likely to be weaker in the second half of the year. The stock appears to be reacting to that weaker outlook, trading unchanged in the after-hours on April 21, despite the big net addition beat. Interestingly, the

Another reminder of what happens when imbalances in the physical/financial markets compound in a vicious manner: The June oil contract has halved in price so far today. Expect the oil ETF fund to lose a lot of the flows it gained in recent weeks. The price of a WTI barrel of oil rebounded on Tuesday and is now back in the black, mimicking the June futures contract—rather than May’s future contract that is set to expire Tuesday afternoon. But the volatility is not yet behind us. The June contract for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) was trading down more than 65% on the day at $6.5 per barrel at 13:45pm EST. The spot prices yesterday were closely linked to the May futures contract, which were also in the red on Monday. Today, however, on the day that this CLK20 futures contract is set to expire, WTI prices are tracking the June futures instead. The May futures contract, or CLK20, rose $41.88 on Tuesday, reaching $4.25. The extreme volatility in the oil markets this week is largel

This ebook reveals a story about the stock market wich will change the way you think about investing. It is a story about a paradox I stumbled upon many years ago, one that still amazes me today. It is the story of an ‘inconvenient truth’ for economics professors as it turns their models upside down. A delusional story for professional investors who are managing other people’s money. It’s also a personal story which will make you smile and wonder. But most importantly, it’s a story that will help you become a better investor, as it describes how to turn scientific insights into profits. It is the modern stock market equivalent of ‘the tortoise and the hare’: a remarkable tale of how low-risk stocks beat high-risk stocks. My goal is to explain this stock market paradox to you as I would explain it to my father. He is a retired businessman with stock market investing experience. Although he is not an expert in finance, he is a wise man with an entrepreneurial mindset. He has taught
