Dark web

The dark web is the deepest part of the internet. We can call it as deep web. The dark web is widely associated with illegal activity. Also, these sites are hidden from search engines. If you want to access the dark web you have to use a special browser (Tor).

The dark web is also looking similar to the other sites. There are pictures, text, clickable content, etc. but when it comes to the dark web URL, it’s a bit complex. You can see shuffled letters in the URL and also it ends with (.onion). Also, the URLs are frequently changed to protect their privacy.

The dark web is not illegal but there are lots of illegal things happening. Such as drug deals, child phonography, hitman services, etc.

To access the dark web you need a TOR browser. When you access a site from TOR it goes through multiple nodes and each node decrypts your data and sends it to a dark web destination. This makes it harder to track your dark web activity. So you are anonymous on the dark web. You can also use the TOR browser for your day-to-day web surfing. It will give you more privacy, security, and anonymity. But some websites won’t allow TOR users to access their sites because they can’t track them.

Steps to securely access the dark web.

Install anti-malware |Use a VPN |Download Tor browser | Then access .onion sites.

Beware there are lots of dangerous sites on the dark web which can make your PC at risk.
