Has anyone been to the Deep Dark Web?

sounds like an urban legend to me ......... if it exists, NO I wouldn't be interested .......shit is already dark enough for me on the regular internet.

R1, it exists.

I know the deep web does exist, but is all of that about human experimentation true? Why wouldn't the FBI crack down on that?

Yes. I read an article about some guy who got caught buying the next generation of party drug from china via the deep web. I can't remember the street name, but a bunch of people got sick or maybe even died from it. And yes, I even think it was in Florida.

I had a friend who visited the Deep Dark Web... and then she died.

And then her death showed up on the Deep Dark Web.

It does exist but I've no need to go there. I get all my porn needs from the normal stuff and don't need to find something illegal. I'm not into drugs and don't care about hacking or stuff like that. But never say never. Some day I might get bored and venture into the unknown waters a bit. I'm scared of being watched, though. You can't really trust Tor or other same kind of services so you'd have to connect elsewhere than from your home or through your mobile.

Like everything, it's not as great as it used to be....

Yes, R4, Flocka. You don't need to go to the Deep Web for that, just Ft. Lauderdale.

Just a heads up, in the dark web many links go to child porn sites. So I would not advise anyone to go there.

R9 - that would be my fear, so I'll pass.

That's terrifying!

R1 It does exist. Wikileaks started on the Deep Web, and even today they work with it to accept new submissions from whistleblowers. Its advantage is that, whereas Google, the NSA etc. can know you're accessing TOR, they can't know what you do on it. Privacy activists all work with TOR.

The problem is that, as happens whenever human beings manage to escape the force of the law, the Deep Web is a fertile ground for all kinds of filth. Stolen art, drugs, heavy guns, hitmen*, and illegal porn can all be ordered through mainstream Deep Web sites, and the Deep Web appears to be littered with pictures of mutilated genitals. There are also sites where you can watch sexual abuse be streamed live. And It's through the Deep Web that terrorists communicate (that's why some people argue the NSA is useless in combating terror activity).

Here's a funny story: It was when I discovered about the Deep Web some 2 years ago that I started my habit of locking the window to my bedroom before going to sleep.

* The vast majority of Deep Web hitmen, however, appear to be undercover government agents. That's how they caught Ross Ulbricht, founder of Silk Road, the Deep Web's Amazon. He ordered several murders using Deep Web hitmen, who all turned out to be FBI agents.

Kris spins a new sticky web nightly.

R12, yikes. If you have any screenshots or any particularly gruesome scary stories of the websites you've encountered in that portal, can you share with us.

R12, The hit man accusation were bogus and he was never charged with anything relating to that.

It was not clear in R12, but TOR is the browser one uses to gain access to the DW.

R15: There is script of the guy making the orders. See below. If they're fake, I've no idea.

The concept terrifies me. I don't know how the decent "activists" who purport to use it can handle it.

I am scared just reading this thread.

I read an article recently about TOR use being prevalent among white supremacist groups who want to keep their activities as secret as possible. I had never even heard of TOR before reading that article, as I have had zero interest in perusing the dark corners of the internet and hiding interactions where illegal and disturbing content can be found. I think if you go looking for trouble, you'll ultimately wish you'd left the trouble alone. I see no upside to viewing that kind of stuff.

R16, He was never charged with murder for hire.

So if it's as simple as using this TOR browser why don't agencies just use that? I agree with everybody who says it sounds creepy... not a place for normal people to go.

Alex Winter made a docu about DeepWeb and Ross.

It is still possible for others and the government to find out what you're doing even if you use TOR. Learned a little about it here:

I do all of my Christmas shopping there and no one has ever wanted to return a gift.

I thought mean Datalounge people couldn't find me on the deep web, but they sniffed me out.

I like this moment betweent Jace and Clay.

Shipping them elready!

Damn! wrong thread! lol

LoL, R27.

Why?

I'm with r29. Why?!

MUCH better prices and free delivery anywhere on Deep Web Amazon. Just sayin.

Another way to find it is 4chan.com

My friend is an internet tech and has been a computer geek for almost 30 years. He goes for the hacker stuff but, yes, it is real.

I'm afraid to click on it, that's why I didn't put the address in the URL space.

This thread is screaming for a MARY!!!

[quote]So if it's as simple as using this TOR browser why don't agencies just use that?

They do, they can use it to view the sites. But the problem is that TOR doesn't allow them to go past it and locate where the users are or their servers. They found the silk road guy because of mistakes he made, infiltrating his inner circle, and finding the main TOR server he was using on a lucky break.

I was curious so I checked it out. I used Tor. It had to link to or through something else as well (I don't remember). It was an additional masking/access layer. Sounds more complicated than it was, it only took a few minutes to download Tor, do the other thing I can't remember, and I was good to go.

I didn't see any kiddie porn. I poked around all over for several hours, going in and out of a lot of different sites. I'm sure there's plenty of kiddie porn there, it just didn't pop up and slime me.

I didn't think the drug prices were particularly attractive. (I have scripts for Norco and pot so they're not going to beat those anyway.) There was a great variety of drugs on offer, plenty of heroin and the hard stuff.

I didn't see any hitmen or Lindsay Lohan selling her snatch or anything too too awful. It never felt creepy or dangerous. There are criminals, they're doing some crimes. Other people there are doing god knows what, doubtless they are also committing crimes or just dicking around. It's not as if they can mug you and grab your bitcoins. You have to actually have some bitcoins first, which I do not.

However, it is the "dark alley" of the internet, rife with shady characters and people who would "mug" you if they could. Keep your wits about you and keep moving right along. There's no harm in passing through.

I haven't felt any need to see it again but it was interesting. When people talk about the "Deep Web" now (as in this thread), I actually know what they are talking about. It wasn't scary.

But if Tor is just a web browser, don't you have to know where to go? I mean on my firefox I still have to open it and type in a URL or go to google and search for stuff. So I don't understand how the guy in the video was saying he went on Tor and all of a sudden all of this sick stuff came up on screen. It sounds like you can do regular web browsing on Tor as well.

Last night OP created a thread about assassins on the the deep web but I think the thread was deleted. Don't give him tips on how to explore the deep web further.

I thought DL was the dark alley of the Internet.

DL is the Vaseline Alley of the Internet.

You don't need the deep dark web to see criminal behavior. Just google theync.com.

Better than being the Hersey Highway R39.

R38 and R39 got W&W

Loved it!

Hey, there's a program on right now about the Deep Web. On EPIX

The stolen art bit sounds fascinating. Not that I want to buy it, but just to see what's out there.

[quote]It sounds like you can do regular web browsing on Tor as well.

You can. To find contraband, you have to look for it. No illegal images are going to jump out at you.

Note: Please know that using a phone app to access Tor is not secure. If you're buying drugs (or worse), use a PC.

The Stuff You Should Know guys did a very informative feature on the deep web.

Yes, but I've never been to me.

So you get on the deep web, is there a record on your computer showing where you've been? On the few of the videos I've seen the one thing they've all said is to know where you want to go because you could easily end up on a child pron site because the name of the sites can be very deceptive, so how do you avoid that? Or can't you if you're just messing around checking out the differant sites like you would on the regular web?

It's fine. It sends its love.

Thanks to all you rowdy homosexuals, my pizza business is now confined to the deep dark web. The upside is that sex with my male relatives is a bit normal on there.

Venturing onto darkweb doesn't mean you're randomly assaulted by unsolicited pics of kidporn and offers from hitmen. It just means you can communicate and browse without your activities being easily tracked to your IP address. I've never sought out or found illegal porn but the drug markets are surprisingly straightforward and business-like. Some of you marys are clutching your pearls too tight.

Is there anything if interest on it that isn't murder and abuse? i.e. Something like wiki leaks used to be before it was well known?

R51 is that a reference to recreational drugs or prescription ones? RXes can be found all over the regular internet too. I wonder if there's a benefit to ordering them through the Tor browser? But - sorry for all the dumb questions - don't you have to give them a mailing address anyway which can be tracked by authorities? Did people just order illegal stuff through Silk Road and have it shipped to their home or PO Box? I would be scared to do that (MARY!)... what if the post office opened the packages?

If anybody is interested in the "secret world" of credit card selling check out Brian Krebs' site.

OP, are you a narc? Seems like you're obsessed with finding out who on DL is on the dark web.

The dark web is like Ouija boards to me. I want not part of it. Hell no.
