Not that I want to, but I’ve always wondered how one gets on the dark web. Does it take some sort of trick or a certain search term?
The most common way to "get on the dark web" is an app called Tor. It lets you browse the regular web anonymously or go to sites on the dark web. Here is a blurb from Norton antivirus...
"Regular browsers can't access dark web websites. Instead, the dark web uses what's called The Onion Router hidden service protocol. “Tor” servers — derived from “The Onion Router” — are undetectable from search engines and offer users complete anonymity while surfing the web."
So you can see the app itself is named after the communication protocol used by the "dark web". It's the equivalent of driving to the bank in an armored truck but claiming you arent planning to leave with a lot of money.
It could be true but forgive me if I dont believe you
Thanks for this! I forgive you, but believe me when I say I have no desire, so much so, that I won’t even Google “how to access the dark web” lol.
This sounds legit and all, but wouldn’t you still be tracked just by downloading the app?
It's possible anytime someone guarantees anonymity that they are secretly logging user info somewhere, but it's "the answer" right now. Maybe in 5 or 10 years someone will break a story saying the nsa tracks all Tor navigation and always has, so everyone bails and a new solution is found.
I downloaded Tor once and to be honest it was not user friendly compared to regular web browsers. I cant believe anyone would use it just for the heck of it
The fact that it's not user friendly is a good thing and probably part of its core function anyway.
People should not be trying to go deep or dark aimlessly unless they are working with law enforcement or a group that is working with law enforcement.
There were people who were investigating into Pizzagate alongside me that got spooked while using TOR and nuked all their accounts and backed out.
Yes. You would have to have layers of security that protects your anonymity with zero guarantee or proof that it works against federal/military agencies.
We already know they are pushing hard for just using a VPN getting you on watchlists, and a VPN despite its marketing does very little to actually protect your privacy, but just adds a relatively small hurdle for anyone who wants your information.
