Option 1
Article Evaluation
 * Article title Atlantis (marketplace)

- Very short article briefly describing the blackmarket site 'Atlantis'

- Touches on the connection with Silk Road with little exploration into it or detail

- Mentions the ad campaign that the site took out but there is little detail

- Doesn't go into the effects of Operation Onymous but mentions it briefly

- Doesn't mention the very open facebook page about the site where people were commenting and interacting in the open

- No detail about the loss of user's bitcoins and how it relates to other sites that did something similar in the wake of Silk Road

- Would need to dig a little bit to find information about this since it's not entirely well documented

- Huge ethical component between the discussion of the dark web and the site shutting down and taking the user's bitcoin

Option 2

 * Article title NOBUS
 * Article Evaluation
 * Article Evaluation

- The article is relatively short with very little detail

- I found it confusing on the whole, I thought the topic was very interesting as it relates to data and security, but after reading the short article I was left more confused on the topic

- There are a number of articles written about the system and I believe there is a lot to be written about the NSA's policy's in general and how they relate to exploiting vulnerabilities in systems

- There is also a huge ethical component that has been discussed regarding the NOBUS protocol

Option 3
Article title Apple CSAM Detection


 * Article Evaluation
 * Article Evaluation

- There is no article on this yet but it is very briefly mentioned in the IOS15 article

- The information is about 2 sentences explaining what CSAM is and how Apple will being screening for explicit messages and photos using a neuralHash.

- The information is presented very quickly and in a confusing way that I'm not entirely sure is accurate.

Option 4

 * Article title Jack Dunlap
 * Article Evaluation
 * Article Evaluation

- Very short stub article about Jack Dunlap

- Has biographical information to the right hand side with a picture of his grave

- Short explanation of his career and eventual spying activities ending with his suicide after being interviewed

- It doesn't seem like there's a lot of information about him out there. There's a decent amount of biographical information on Arlington National Cemetery's page for him, but no sources cited there or really any sources cited on the original wiki page. Very interesting man but probably not the best subject for an article since there's not a lot of information about him.
