Teaser Tuesday: The digital Knockturn Ally

So, is Tor the Dark Web and Dark Web Tor? Absolutely not. Tor is only one network that exists in the Dark Web. There are others, such as Hornet, Freenet, and I2P, which we’ll discuss later on in the book.

The Dark Web Dive

Interesting! I’ve always heard ‘other browsers’ mentioned as far as accessing the dark web, but never looked into what the browsers and the networks they permit entry into constituted.

Today’s TTT is minor characters we wish had gotten their own book. We did this list back in 2011, so I’m going to spotlight books on my Kindle Unlimited shelf.

(1) Algorithms to Live By, Brian Christian and Tom Griffiths. Haven’t taken a look at it yet, just curious.

(2) The Dark Web Dive: A Complete Guide to The Dark Web. One topic we’re discussing in my SLIS class is the dark web. I’m reading this both out of personal curiosity and so I have a book to cite.

(3) Short Stories by Jesus: The Enigmatic Parables of a Controversial Rabbi, Amy-Jill Levine.

(4) The Shephard of Hermas. An early Christian text mentioned by content in The Jewish Annontated New Testament.

(5) Thinking, Fast and Slow. Daniel Kahneman. Another “let’s have a look” book.

(6) On Reading Well: Finding the Good Life through Great Books, Karen Swallow Prior and Leland Ryken

(7) In the Company of Trees: Honoring Our Connection to the Sacred Power, Beauty, and Wisdom of Trees, Andrea Sarubbi Fereshteh

(8) The Discarded Image: An Introduction to Medieval and Renaissance Literature, C.S. Lewis

(9) Angle of Repose, Wallace Stegner

(10) The Decadent Society: How We Become Victims of Our Own Success, Ross Douthat

  1. Where would I find T’Ressa Chen, if I wanted to read about her? (Or watch, but I can’t recall coming across her in any of the Star Trek series, and I’ve watched most of them except Enterprise, Lower Decks, and Prodigy.)

    • She’s introduced in Christopher L. Bennett’s “Greater than the Sum”, part of the Trek literary relaunch that ran for 20 years. It’s basically an extended universe of novels that share a common history and characters, a mix of new ones and those from the screen. Worth checking out if you’re a Trek fan!

    I actually just DNFd ‘Algorithms to Live By’ recently after around 40 pages… Not what I was expecting and I found it rather dense and overblown to be honest.

    I have a similar (possibly!) one to (6): ‘How to Live, What to Do – How Great Novels Help Us Change’ by Josh Cohen.
