The Dark Web Apart from Tor

The Dark Web Apart from Tor The dark web, a subset of the broader Deep Web, is comprised of online content that is not indexed by conventional search engines and requires specialized software or permissions to access. While Tor (The Onion Router) is perhaps the most recognized darknet, there are numerous other anonymity networks, each with its own distinct features and user base (Figueras-Martín, Magán-Carrión, & Boubeta-Puig, 2022). Tor, with its onion routing system, is renowned for its ability to enable users to access websites in the dark web anonymously. However, its popularity has also attracted attention from search engines, which often block access to Tor's onion services. To circumvent these restrictions, services like Tor2web have emerged, allowing users to access Tor onion services without using the Tor Browser (Tor2web, n.d). Aside from Tor, other darknets include I2P, Freenet, ZeroNet, GNUnet, Retroshare, Urbit, and Tribler. Unlike Tor, many of these networks opera...

Scientific management was best known from 1910 to 1920, but in the 1920s, competing management theories and methods emerged, rendering scientific management largely obsolete by the 1930s. However, many of the themes of scientific management are still seen in industrial eng...

Laws Against Rape in Nigeria

The good book says, “where there is no law, there is no offence” . In criminal law, there is a principle called Nullum crimen sine lege (Latin for "no crime without law."). It says that a person cannot or should not face criminal punishment except for an act that is criminalized by law before he/she committed it (okay, I promise this is the only legal jargon you’ll see in this article). Amidst growing and disturbing reports of rape and other sexual and gender-based violence, especially against women and children in Nigeria, there is also growing interest in provisions of the law that provide protection to women and victims of gender-based violence. In contribution to the global awareness campaign for the protection of women from gender-based violence, it is an asset to be knowledgeable on the existing legal framework for protecting the rights of victims and survivors in search of justice. This article also serves as a warning to potential offenders, of the punishment tha...
