Allison Plattsmier is a 22-year-old Vanderbilt graduate student whose work opposing campus carry gained her an invitation to the White House to talk about gun control. When we commented on an article on her in The Tennessean, she took exception:

I think we should ban assault rifles ...’ etc.” We offered to publish a correction if she could access a recording of the interview; regretfully, she could not.

A study from Terbium Labs is looking to dispel those dearly-held notions of what the dark web actually is. According to researchers Dr. Clare Gollnick and Emily Wilson, the dark web is less of a science fair filled with the world's worst people and more like your average teenager's bedroom.
