Ross Ulbricht, a libertarian programmer, created Silk Road on the dark web: an anonymous marketplace for drugs, weapons, fake passports and malicious software that moved $1.2 billion. Bilton reconstructs the federal hunt for the Dread Pirate Roberts and the struggle between the free internet and state control, up to the fall of the empire.
The book's subtitle is «Catching the Billion-Dollar Baron of the Dark Web» and the cover presents it as a The New York Times bestseller.
For readers interested in cybercrime and the origins of the web.
