Welcome to Octopus Inc., the internet giant that allows users to exchange their personal data for currency. But not everyone is prepared to sacrifice their privacy quite so easily…

A teenager subverts the system in an attempt to save her mother, a visionary tech exec takes shortcuts to get ahead and a cybercriminal makes a choice between two kinds of freedom.

Rose Lewenstein’s topical and provocative play grapples with a burning issue of our time – the right to control our own data. Darknet navigates through the world of data commodification and the uncharted deep web, shining a light on the things we choose to share and the places we go to hide.
