a. an international marketplace where criminals buy and sell products.

Explanation:
In computing, WWW simply means World Wide Web. The world wide web was invented by Sir Tim Berners-Lee in 1990 while working with the European Council for Nuclear Research (CERN); Web 2.0 evolved in 1999. Basically, WWW refers to a collection of web pages that are located on a huge network of interconnected computers (the Internet). Also, users from all over the world can access the world wide web by using an internet connection and a web browser such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc.
In a nutshell, the world wide web (www) is an information system that is generally made up of users and resources (documents) that are connected via hypertext links.
The dark web also referred to as darknet, can be defined as a subset of the world wide web that is intentionally encrypted from conventional web browser and search engines. Thus, it is a peer-to-peer network that requires the use of specialized configuration and web browser such as "Tor browser" in order to access its contents.
Generally, all the internet activities carried out on the dark web are anonymous and private, thereby making it suitable for either legal or illegal operations. Also, it's devoid of government influence or control and as such it's typically a capitalistic marketplace, where goods and services are privately owned and controlled by the people.
Hence, we can deduce that the dark web is simply;
I. An international marketplace where criminals buy and sell their products.
II. A capitalistic marketplace for criminals and non-criminals.
