What's happening outside?

At the beginning of the words

I want to talk about the dark web. Let me explain further: the dark web —everyone knows it's somewhat scary. You can't log in easily; you need a VPN for protection. But I am here to correct your perceptions of the dark web. Let's get to the main point. First, let's discuss

1. What is the dark web? What do you know about the dark web?

The dark web, or dark net, is a small part of the deep web that is intentionally hidden. Websites and data on the dark web typically require a special tool to access.

 The type of sites most commonly associated with the dark web are marketplaces where illicit goods such as narcotics, firearms, or, for example, stolen credit card numbers are bought and sold. The darkest corners are used to hire hitmen, engage in human trafficking, and exchange child pornography.

 More than that, though, the dark web contains content and data that can be accessed anonymously. It could be a blog, forum, chat room, or private gaming server.

 The beauty of the dark net is anonymity. As long as users take the necessary precautions, no one knows who anyone else is in the real world. Users’ identities are safe from the prying eyes of governments and corporations.

 Journalists and whistleblowers, including Edward Snowden himself, often use the dark web and Tor to exchange sensitive information. For instance, the Ashley Madison data dump was posted to a site only accessible to Tor users.

 Tor is a network of volunteer relays through which the user’s internet connection is routed. The connection is encrypted, and all the traffic bounces between relays worldwide, making the user anonymous. The easiest way to access Tor is through a special browser known as the Tor Browser.

Now that you have Tor, you can access the dark web. Dark net websites are called “Tor hidden services”, and they can be distinguished from normal websites by their URLs. Instead of “.com” or “.org”, dark web addresses can be distinguished by the top-level domain, “.onion“.

2. What was the Darknet created for?

The Tor network was created by the US military in the 1990s for anonymous communication between spies over the internet. That effort was never fully realized, but the US military published the code under a free license in 2004. Researchers from the Electronic Frontier Foundation and other groups continued their development and launched the Tor project in 2006 as a tool for journalists, activists, and whistleblowers.

 Why hasn't the dark web stopped or shut down?

 There are a few reasons why the dark web hasn’t stopped or shut down. First, it’s difficult to track and monitor activity on the dark web since much of it is encrypted.

 Second, shutting down or controlling access to the dark web would be a huge undertaking and could have unintended consequences. Finally, many people consider the dark web a necessary tool for privacy and freedom of speech.

3. Is the dark web actually anonymous?

Yes, the dark web is indeed anonymous. This means that the identities and locations of darknet users are hidden from public view and remain anonymous, even when interacting with other users or engaging in any online activity. The technology behind this anonymous connection is known as “onion routing,” which utilizes a layered approach to obscure data and protect users’ locations on the network.

4. Is killing available on the dark web?

There is no doubt that killing is widely available on the dark web. In fact, there is an entire section of the dark web dedicated to pornographic content. However, it is important to note that not all of this content is legal.

 The dark web allows people to access and share all sorts of illegal and explicit material without judgment or censorship. 

5. What is I2P?

I2P is an alternative anonymous network to Tor. Unlike Tor, however, it cannot be used to access the public internet. It can only be used to access hidden services specific to the I2P network. I2P cannot be used to access .onion sites because it is a completely separate network from Tor. Instead, I2P uses its own brand of hidden sites called “eepsites”.

 So why would you use I2P instead of Tor? After all, it’s much less popular, can’t be used to access normal websites, and isn’t as easy to use, among other disadvantages. Both rely on a peer-to-peer routing structure and layered encryption to make browsing private and anonymous.

 I2P does have a few advantages, though. For several technical reasons, it’s much faster and more reliable than Tor. The peer-to-peer routing structure is more advanced, and it does not rely on a trusted directory to get route information. I2P uses one-way tunnels, so an eavesdropper can only capture outbound or inbound traffic, not both.

 Setting up I2P requires more configuration on the user’s part than Tor. I2P must be downloaded and installed, after which configuration is done through the router console. Then, individual applications must each be separately configured to work with I2P. You’ll need to configure your browser’s proxy settings to use the correct port on a web browser.
