Summary/Abstract: Viruses, ransomware, phishing attacks, surface web, deep web, dark web, hacking, breaking, breaching, cybercrime, identity theft, cryptocurrencies, money laundering - these are just a few words that have entered the usual vocabulary of many people, whether they are victims of illegal practices, or they benefit from the naivete or inattention of the victims and, not infrequently, from their greed. Many of these words have a common denominator: they indicate illegal activities, mostly, carried out online. These illicit activities have created a real economy, free in the textual sense and as explicit as possible of the word, because it offers and buys literally almost anything, from weapons and drugs, to study documents, personal data, bank accounts and, however incredible and even sinister it may seem, there is a room for “recreation” for pedophiles or for people with universally sanctioned “tastes” and “appetites” at the societal level.
