DarkNet

The DarkNet, or darknet, was a banking and communications system that could host encrypted bank accounts and be used to send files. In 232 BBY, the Nihil Tempest Runner Kassav Milliko extorted the Eriadu system's Governor Mural Veen for fifty million credits, which she transferred into his encrypted darknet account. In 0 ABY, shortly after the Battle of Yavin, the Rebel Alliance used the DarkNet to spread footage of the space battle that had resulted in the destruction of the Death Star, which the smuggler Lando Calrissian and his friend Lobot watched from a cantina.
