I’ve written before about the three layers of the internet:

  1. The top layer, the ‘tip of the iceberg’, which includes all the famous the sites everyone online knows about and, basically, any content that can be accessed via hyperlinks
  2. Then there’s the deep web, which includes content that’s password-protected, unpublished, not linked to by other sites, accessible only after a search has been performed or behind a paywall
  3. Then there’s the dark web, which I know very little about

And then, checking my spam folder in case anything useful had found its way in there, I found a message that had come via this website.

It read:

Are you curious to know what the dark web is? What is hidden in the deep Internet? Go!
Download TOR browser and visit TOR sites directory
TOR browser – https://www.torproject.org/download/
TOR sites directory – http://torwiki.biz/

I’m tempted by these links (I’d obviously check them first) to learn more. Maybe children should be educated about the dark web too.

As I wrote in October 2018:

(The dark web) does have its legitimate uses – preserving the anonymity of activists and journalists, for example – but due to its nature, there is, so I’ve read, quite a lot of naughty stuff that goes on there: illicit marketplaces for guns, drugs, counterfeit money, hackers and worse.
