Silk Road drug site founder jailed
Two life sentences for Ross Ulbricht, founder of Silk Road.
The Silk Road took its name from the historic trade routes spanning Europe, Asia and parts of Africa.
It achieved notoriety through media reports and online chatter.
But users could only access the site through Tor - a system that lets people use the web without revealing who they are or which country they are in.
Tor was created by the US government to help provide activists with anonymity but is now often used to mask illegal transactions.
