Irving went downstairs in three steps and two steps at a time, and approached Sha Baitian's computer. Sha Baitian's hands were tapping the keyboard quickly, and at the same time he explained: "Look at this, just now, the Director of Intelligence
The latest information coming from the office is that someone is selling copies of information on the United States spying on enemy countries on the dark web..."
Owen looked at the piece of information. It was pushed over three minutes ago. The level marked on the back of the information showed that it was extremely credible.
The Office of the Director of Intelligence is now the highest-level intelligence agency in the United States, and its head is none other than Jack Bauer. Since the intelligence was pushed over from there and specially marked, the accuracy of the intelligence should have been verified.
The United States monitors information from enemy countries? Owen looked at the list posted on the dark web. It seemed that it was not only enemy countries, but also many allies of the United States. Owen frowned. If this is true, then it can be done in the United States.
Only NSA is responsible for this matter.
Owen looked at Shabaitian. NSA was her old employer. Shabaitian knew what Owen meant and shrugged, "I was a technician when I was at NSA. I have no access to such secrets. If I knew
It is estimated that he will not survive until now, but for a period of time, the throughput of the NSA server increased dramatically. From this point of view, it is probably true..."
Owen nodded. If it is true, the NSA must be in a state of distress now. If this thing is made public, it will be equivalent to grabbing the United States for doing bad things. It is enough to make the United States the target of public criticism. You know, the watch list shows more than just
There are enemies of the United States, and many of them are its allies and subordinates, which is embarrassing.
When Owen was about to ask Silly Baitian, his phone suddenly rang. The caller ID was President Palmer's personal phone number, and Owen answered the call.
"Owen, the situation is urgent. The NSA has made a big mistake. I hope Omega is ready to clean up the mess..."
A few minutes later, Irving hung up the phone. President Palmer issued a death order, and Omega was responsible for this matter. The surveillance plan did exist, but the matter was highly confidential. Irving did not know the details of the plan. He only
I know that after the incident, the NSA still did not believe that the relevant information had been stolen. They believed that the most likely possibility was that the other party did not have real evidence and everything was just a bluff.
Irving is very confused. The other party posted the information on the dark web, and it is unclear whether he can follow the clues.
The dark web is a very mysterious existence. No one knows when it appeared, and no one knows who is behind it. Irving even suspected that a big country was behind it, but there was no evidence.
The dark web is like a lawless place. They will not appear in the public eye. Most people even do not know the existence of the dark web. However, the dark web is the largest information platform in the underground world. Every minute
There are various transactions on it every second, all of which violate today's laws, but they are still going on.
Murder, sex trade, sale of women and children, organ trade, drug trade, arms trade, and various illegal transactions constitute the ecology of the dark web.
Although Owen has never had direct contact with the dark web, he has actually dealt with it many times.
At the earliest, his sisters Amanda and Ken were kidnapped by Albanians. Although they were eventually rescued, many other girls were actually sold by Albanians through the dark web.
Owen later learned that the kidnapped girls would be filmed on video and used as goods to hang on the Internet. When some interested customers showed interest, they could even inspect the goods via video. Once satisfied, the kidnappers would
The goods are delivered to customers through underground express delivery, and the two parties do not need to meet at all.
This large-scale sale of women is not a big deal on the dark web, it is much more excessive.
For example, the previous assassination reward for President Palmer was sold through the dark web, and the previous assassination of Beth was posted through the Continental Hotel, and then the killer took over the order, but in fact the Continental Hotel was just
An organization that specializes in murder can be considered a small part of the dark web.
Governments of various countries have known about the existence of the dark web for a long time, and have carried out targeted crackdowns, including TU and FBI, but those that have been taken down are only certain points on the dark web. If the dark web is compared to Amazon, then
The person who was eliminated was just a certain seller or buyer, and it had nothing to do with the Amazon platform.
Owen frowned, "There's still no way?"
Silly Baitian shook her head helplessly. The dark web is constructed using a very strange technology. Its address changes every moment. One second you may still be a visitor, and the next second you become one.
One of its hosts, which leaves hackers trying to break into it helpless.
Governments of various countries have tried to let hackers invade the dark web, but without exception, they have all failed. The technology of the dark web is very powerful, so Owen suspects that there is a big country behind the dark web. Apart from this kind of force, Owen can't think of anyone else.
The organization can have such a strong technical reserve.
"Wait, let me see, I have good news. This time the seller requires a face-to-face transaction..."
Silly Baitian looked at Owen with bright eyes. This is really good news. Not everyone on the dark web believes in the dark web. After all, everyone is doing illegal things, so although there are many people on the dark web,
They post information online but require offline transactions. Compared to the dark web, they want to take control of their own security.
"Great, promise him, where is the specific location?"
Irving waved his fist, and if he could meet him, his chances of catching him would be much higher. After Shabaitian communicated with the other party, the other party responded quickly. Shabaitian turned around and said: "Paris, Venice, Milan, Berlin
, these four places are available, you can choose any one..."
Owen and Sha Baitian looked at each other. It seemed that the other one was a veteran. These four cities were just tourist cities in the eyes of ordinary people, but everyone in the industry knew that these were actually several famous intelligence distribution centers in the world.
Information dealers like to trade here.
"We choose Paris..."
Irving finally chose Paris as the location. The reason why he chose this place was not because of anything else, but simply because Irving had practiced French hard after rescuing his sister in Paris, and now he has no problem with basic communication.
"Okay, it's done. The other party agreed. It's 10 million US dollars. No bargaining. He said that he can transfer money or gold of equal value. Other methods are not considered. The time is set for the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, and the location will be notified later..."
"Arrange a flight for me. I'm going to Paris tonight. Also contact Jack. I need an account with at least 10 million US dollars..."
