Dear All,

We have started receiving the essay copies. If you have registered for the open test and yet to send your answer copy, please do send at the earliest. Last date for submission is 28th June 2017.

We will be starting the review process from tomorrow on-wards, so students can expect to get their reviewed copies from day-after-tomorrow.

The idea of this initiative is to break the “initial hesitation” of writing among students and we have put in a lot of effort to see this initiative through. To provide 3-4 page review along with personal counsel for so many students is a very demanding and challenging task and requires extra effort from our side. Nonetheless, we urge you to take advantage of this initiative.

As a philosopher once said – The most important step is the first step and that is the only step you ever going to need.

So, if you have registered, take benefit of this initiative and share it with others as well.

If you have not not registered yet, you can do so by simply registering at www.upsctree.com  and then downloading the question paper and start writing.

For the sake of convenience, you no need to take print out of the entire question paper(although if you do that would be good), instead you can write Your NAME, MAIL ID and TOPIC on a plain paper and then write the essay and send it to us. Don’t forget to leave blank space on each page (1/5th on each page) as that will help us provide page-wise review as well.

The topics are as follows and you have to write at least one.(1000-1200 words)

  1. Will we be leaving the earth as a better place than we found it ?
  2. Technology makes democracy more democratic
  3. The idea of India
  4. Disability is not inability.

Each topic is very carefully chosen after due diligence for this initiative and we will provide the reasoning behind these topics post-submission of your answer copies.

Thank You

UPSCTREE Team

    • Darknet

    Definition:

    Darknet, also known as dark web or darknet market, refers to the part of the internet that is not indexed or accessible through traditional search engines. It is a network of private and encrypted websites that cannot be accessed through regular web browsers and requires special software and configuration to access.

    The darknet is often associated with illegal activities such as drug trafficking, weapon sales, and hacking services, although not all sites on the darknet are illegal.

    Examples:

    Examples of darknet markets include Silk Road, AlphaBay, and Dream Market, which were all shut down by law enforcement agencies in recent years.

    These marketplaces operate similarly to e-commerce websites, with vendors selling various illegal goods and services, such as drugs, counterfeit documents, and hacking tools, and buyers paying with cryptocurrency for their purchases.

    Pros :

    • Anonymity: Darknet allows users to communicate and transact with each other anonymously. Users can maintain their privacy and avoid being tracked by law enforcement agencies or other entities.
    • Access to Information: The darknet provides access to information and resources that may be otherwise unavailable or censored on the regular internet. This can include political or sensitive information that is not allowed to be disseminated through other channels.
    • Freedom of Speech: The darknet can be a platform for free speech, as users are able to express their opinions and ideas without fear of censorship or retribution.
    • Secure Communication: Darknet sites are encrypted, which means that communication between users is secure and cannot be intercepted by third parties.
    •  

    Cons:

    • Illegal Activities: Many darknet sites are associated with illegal activities, such as drug trafficking, weapon sales, and hacking services. Such activities can attract criminals and expose users to serious legal risks.
    • Scams: The darknet is a hotbed for scams, with many fake vendors and websites that aim to steal users’ personal information and cryptocurrency. The lack of regulation and oversight on the darknet means that users must be cautious when conducting transactions.
    • Security Risks: The use of the darknet can expose users to malware and other security risks, as many sites are not properly secured or monitored. Users may also be vulnerable to hacking or phishing attacks.
    • Stigma: The association of the darknet with illegal activities has created a stigma that may deter some users from using it for legitimate purposes.

    Artificial Intelligence

    Definition:

    AI, or artificial intelligence, refers to the development of computer systems that can perform tasks that would normally require human intelligence, such as recognizing speech, making decisions, and understanding natural language.

    Examples:

    • Virtual assistants: Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant are examples of virtual assistants that use natural language processing to understand and respond to users’ queries.
    • Recommendation systems: Companies like Netflix and Amazon use AI to recommend movies and products to their users based on their browsing and purchase history.

    Pros :

    • Efficiency: AI systems can work continuously without getting tired or making errors, which can save time and resources.
    • Personalization: AI can help provide personalized recommendations and experiences for users.
    • Automation: AI can automate repetitive and tedious tasks, freeing up time for humans to focus on more complex tasks.

    Cons:

    • Job loss: AI has the potential to automate jobs previously performed by humans, leading to job loss and economic disruption.
    • Bias: AI systems can be biased due to the data they are trained on, leading to unfair or discriminatory outcomes.
    • Safety and privacy concerns: AI systems can pose safety risks if they malfunction or are used maliciously, and can also raise privacy concerns if they collect and use personal data without consent.
