A BILL To prohibit the delivery of opioids by means of the dark web, and for other purposes.

Dark Web Interdiction Act of 2025

Here is the text of a bill introduced to Congress (US), ostensibly to combat the trafficking of opioids over "The Dark Web". There's a nice definition of "The Dark Web" at section 4.

I like the part where it says people are using "The Dark Web" both within the United States and "at the international border".

Sending drugs in the mail is illegal. The point of this bill is to create pretext for seizing data from servers. When they say "dark" they mean "encrypted" and when they say "illegal" they mean "private."

Donald J. Trump pardoned The Silk Road guy, who was responsible for a non-zero amount of opioid sales on the dark web.

Because that would put essentially all computer crimes in ICE jurisdiction.
