Ross William Ulbricht (/ ˈ ʊ l b r ɪ k t /; born March 27, 1984) [1] is an American who created and operated the darknet market Silk Road from 2011 until his arrest in 2013. Silk Road was an online marketplace that facilitated the trade in narcotics and other illegal products and services.
The FBI described Silk Road as a "digital bazaar" for illegal goods and services that buyers and sellers accessed through Tor — a network designed to conceal its users' identity and location.
