"Rhysider finds the unlikeliest of sources in the unlikeliest places, and tells their stories — whether humorous, curious or deeply disturbing — in gripping detail...it is as diverse and versatile as the Internet it covers, constantly overturning new stones. “Diaries” does, to some degree, suffer the problem all technical podcasts know very well: it has to assume how much you already know. “Darknet Diaries” is not just fascinating entertainment, but an invaluable resource for learning more about the world around us."

Gregg Stockdale • The Podcast Geek • Jan 16, 2022
"Judging by this synopsis, it may sound like the domain of nerds, but the stories are all told in an interesting way with very little technical jargon. Don’t get me wrong, there is jargon aplenty here, but Jack usually explains it well enough for you to understand. ...this is a brilliant podcast ..."

Miranda Sawyer • The Guardian • Dec 17, 2017
"Neatly edited and charmingly presented by Jack Rhysider, the podcast does occasionally stray into nerdiness, but it’s chock-full of real-life examples of when our virtual lives fail."
