The Darkest Web plot

For American agent Greg Squire and a dedicated network of specialized undercover investigators worldwide, the mission is clear: track down and arrest pedophiles operating on the dark web with the same sophistication and secrecy as international organized crime syndicates. These perpetrators are increasingly much younger than the stereotypical pedophile—tech-savvy young adults who exploit digital anonymity with alarming ease.

The existence of the dark web has provided pedophiles with a safe haven to share material. Piranty speaks to members of cybersecurity teams from various countries who discuss their work, how it affects their personal lives, and the moments when they managed to arrest ringleaders of pedophile networks. The interviewees deserve great respect for their work and for the toll they pay for it. The arrests have been filmed and can be seen, but otherwise, Piranty is inevitably confined to talking heads in dark rooms.
