DARKNET AS AN ESCAPING SPHERE OF LEGAL REGULATION
Abstract
The legal system of Russia in recent decades has obviously faced the challenges of the global electronic network. They are connected primarily with the fact that many groups of legal relations, which traditionally existed in the “material” form, are moving into cyberspace. It does not only apply to large-scale digitalization of the sphere of sale and purchase, but also to those areas of law whose transfer to the Internet has never been expected before (public services, electronic voting right, etc.). Even more threatening is the problem of using darknet in criminal spheres.
The absence of any systemic legal regulation in this area or even a minimal set of basic legal terms makes domestic legislation defenseless against the rapidly developing darknet. The article proposes the authors’ understanding of the main issues of the darknet as a subject of legal regulation, the balance of freedom and anonymity in the network and the protection of public and private interests. The framing of the concept of legal regulation in relation to darknet should serve as a starting point on this highly complex path.
