Darknet (file sharing) Darknets are distinct from other distributed peer-to-peer networks as sharing is anonymous (that is, IP addresses are not publicly shared), and therefore users can communicate with little fear of governmental or corporate interference.[2] For this reason, darknets are often associated with dissident political communications and illegal activities.
More generally, the term "darknet" can be used to describe all non-commercial sites on the Internet,[3] or to refer to all "underground" web communications and technologies, most commonly those associated with illegal activity or dissent.[2] The Microsoft researchers argued that the presence of the darknet was the primary hindrance to the development of workable DRM technologies. The term has since been widely adopted and has seen usage in major media sources, including Rolling Stone and Wired. Almost all known darknets are decentralized and therefore considered peer to peer. Many darknets require a software to be installed to access them.
Deep Web. What on earth is /r/klyatic? : OutOfTheLoop. Episode 35: The Lost Levels. 8Z8xJsC.jpg (3264×1840) Alternate reality game. An alternate reality game (ARG) is an interactive networked narrative that uses the real world as a platform and employs transmedia storytelling to deliver a story that may be altered by players' ideas or actions.
The form is defined by intense player involvement with a story that takes place in real time and evolves according to players' responses. Subsequently, it is shaped by characters that are actively controlled by the game's designers, as opposed to being controlled by artificial intelligence as in a computer or console video game. Players interact directly with characters in the game, solve plot-based challenges and puzzles, and collaborate as a community to analyze the story and coordinate real-life and online activities.
ARGs generally use multimedia, such as telephones, email and mail but rely on the Internet as the central binding medium.

Usenet celebrity. John Titor. John Titor's military insignia John Titor is the name used on several bulletin boards during 2000 and 2001 by a poster claiming to be a time traveler from 2036.[1] In these posts, Titor made numerous predictions (a number of them vague, some quite specific)[2] about events in the near future, starting with events in 2004. He described a drastically changed future in which the United States had broken into five smaller regions, the environment and infrastructure had been devastated by a nuclear attack, and most other world powers had been destroyed. To date, the story has been retold on numerous web sites, in a book, in a play, and the Japanese visual novel/anime Steins;Gate. Titor has also been discussed occasionally on the nationally-syndicated radio show Coast to Coast AM.[3]

Warlizard Gaming Forum.
