What is it? While many people use the terms Deep Web and Dark Web interchangeably, the two are far from synonymous. That’s because the Dark Web is actually a (very small) subset of the Deep Web and includes censor-resistant platforms, like Tor, Freenet and I2P (Invisible Internet Project). A huge majority of websites on the Dark Web are on the Tor platform, and have .onion as their top-level domain (TLD). Those on the I2P platform, meanwhile, have .i2p as their top-level domain name. While accessing the first lot is relatively easier, it’s the I2P-based sites that are a little trickier. Often called the modern Wild West, the Dark Web is a completely different sub-system that’s far-removed from the regular ‘surface web’ that you and I access everyday. It has its own search engines, the most famous being ‘Grams’ that looks and feels a bit like Google, and is even referred to as the ‘Google of the Dark Web’ by fans and critics alike. Accessing the Dark Web It is a fairly simple process on...
