find ways to make it as “invisible” as
possible

Darknet
Editor's Notes
It is also called the DeepWeb because of it’s invisibility to major search engines such as Google
To expound on the thought above, it is dubbed as an illegal “Amazon.com” because the items for sale are illegal, such as drugs, weapons, and etc.
Because Darknet is basically the market for illegal products, it produces illegal profit. The operations of the people that run illegal cartels go against the law. Therefore, those people who sell the illegal products at Darknet should be deemed unethical and immoral, because they do not follow proper business ethics, let alone the law.
It damages the potential sales of products which can be sold legally online, such as guns
The Darknet in two years time will be a more increasingly solid website for illegal transactions. There more time wasted of not shutting down the wesbsite, the more time there is for illegal crimes to occur.
As to all illegal things, the developers of darknet will try to make the site as invisible as possible. Hiding darknet will not only secure the developers, it will also ensure the people who are using darknet online credibility and security.
