I have been looking into the deep internet for a little while now and was curious to know if anyone on MAL knew about it.

*******************************************************************

(Some of this was copied from BB.com, I'm just bringing it to MAL)

THIS IS LONG, BUT WORTH THE READ.

For those who don't know, the deep web represents a gargantuan part of the internet which is not accessible through regular searches via google or other search engines.

Searching on the Internet today can be compared to dragging a net across the surface of the ocean. While a great deal may be caught in the net, there is still a wealth of information that is deep, and therefore, missed. The reason is simple: Most of the Web's information is buried far down on dynamically generated sites, and standard search engines never find it.

Here are some facts on The Deep Web:

· Public information on the deep Web is currently 400 to 550 times larger than the commonly defined World Wide Web.

· The deep Web contains 7,500 terabytes of information compared to 19 terabytes of information in the surface Web.

· The deep Web contains nearly 550 billion individual documents compared to the 1 billion of the surface Web.

· More than 200,000 deep Web sites presently exist.

· Sixty of the largest deep-Web sites collectively contain about 750 terabytes of information — sufficient by themselves to exceed the size of the surface Web forty times.

· The deep Web is the largest growing category of new information on the Internet.

· Deep Web sites tend to be narrower, with deeper content, than conventional surface sites.

· Total quality content of the deep Web is 1,000 to 2,000 times greater than that of the surface Web.

· Deep Web content is highly relevant to every information need, market, and domain.

· More than half of the deep Web content resides in topic-specific databases.

· A full ninety-five per cent of the deep Web is publicly accessible information — not subject to fees or subscriptions.

What lies beneath the surface is a who's who of hackers, scientists, drug dealers, astronomers, assassins, physicists, revolutionaries, Government officials, Police, Feds, terrorists, perverts, data miners, kidnappers, sociologists, etc. As you can tell, the party goes across the entire moral spectrum.

SCREENSHOT OF THE HIDDEN WIKI: http://i.imgur.com/Xq7ih.png

Even underground fighting tournaments to the death (I'm not joking very real very organized). Very Real trained professional fighters. It may seem surreal but they are guys that train with the best and want no part of UFC or any fight league. Dudes who really enjoy fighting to the death. It's just crazy explaining it it's not some barroom brawl. These things happen and alot of millionaires pay big money to see them. Modern Gladiator battles. I heard there are some with humans vs animals.

However, 0.00000001% of all data on the dark web is stuff normal people will be able to access, understand and use. And even a small fraction of that is illegal stuff.. its not like some hardcore underground network of spies, killers, pedos and criminals. The rest % is used by their respected authorities.

Don't be an idiot and start clicking on links you see on the hiddenwiki, but poke your head in the door you'll see its not modern anarchy in there.

While the information on the deep web is vastly overwhelming, it should not be feared. In most aspects, the information is just there, it's what you choose to do with the information that can lead you to trouble and imprisonment. Producing, storing, exchanging, transferring information.

Before you begin I suggest learning how the deep web works and what you can do to better protect yourself against intruders and anything that can compromise your true anonymity

I'll post how to get on the Hidden Wiki next.

Here is a screenshot of a typical source in the Deep Web: http://i56.tinypic.com/241wnj5.png.

This is like some post apacolyptic world where they only accept the bizarre currency bitcoins and all the websites look like they are from 1990's era geocities.

BTC's are the deep web's form of currency.. bitcoins.
This **** is hilarious, bizarre, and terrifying..
half the time the sites dont work and result in the most cryptic jargon filled errors. the other half, you wait ten minutes for it to load only to see something which shocks you because of how serious it is. this is where the hackers hang out. The can use your own webcam to spy on you. (srs)

I know what you're thinking some of the best hackers around and the server is slow as. The servers are probably used to a pretty small amount of traffic. With the attention deep web has got from niketalk and anon. in the last few days they are probably struggling a bit I reckon. Could be wrong on that but basically patience is a necessity in the deep web.

Now I'm just a cog in the machine. A really big machine. And really just relaying information found on other fora as mentioned already. I'm just trying to find people that are in it already. I want to know what they're saying on current events, Libya, Nasa investigation on that metorite, higher alien life forms, where Adrian Wojnarowski gets his trade information from etc

While the information on the deep web is vastly overwhelming, it should not be feared. In most aspects, the information is just there, it's what you choose to do with the information that can lead you to trouble and imprisonment. Producing, storing, exchanging, transferring information.

*****************************************************************

I find it fascinating that there is such a large part of the internet unknown to most people and that contains such crazy sh*t like assassinations ect. Let me know if you have or havnt heard of it, what you think about it and if you have known about it, what are some of the things you saw?

That was actually interesting. Guess you do learn new stuff every day.

I wouldn't be particularly scared of what I would find, but it sounds like going there puts you and your computer at great risk. Therefore I probably wouldn't do it.

Reading it, it sounds like a secret organization of the internet. The thought amuses me slightly.

Paranoid about what exactly? And seriously this deep web thing ain't anything that mysterious as it may sound, it's just websites that to not accept web crawlers. The content can be anything from a typical page or whatever but isn't that what internet is all about?

Do those random facts translate directly into the .onion domain, i.e. is the .onion domain hundreds of times bigger than what google addresses? I haven't accessed, but my gut feeling would tell me that .onion should have fewer sites than, say, .com, and that thus the "statistics" include other stuff that could be classified as "being on the net", as in, among others, private torrent trackers or Perfect Dark?

I'm not paranoid about what I'll find, I actually am very interested about stuff like this, but I am usually extremely careful with the sites I go to since I do not have an excellent firewall or anything. For sites I am not familiar with, I would always have people tell me if its safe from viruses or adware or anything first.

I recently began researching deep web, but stopped after seeing how big and " out of the law" it was. I don't really wanna have programes to browse and I wouldn't want to stumble upon illegal stuffand get in trouble for it.

Though I have to agree that this looks interesting and if you have the right knowledge it would be a major source of information.

That's my point. If you know how to format then no matter what might invade your PC you can fix it. So the worse such stuff can do is make you reinstall Windows. If you keep important files in the windows partition then you should have already changed tactic even for normal web.

I dunno what you mean it can't be found by search engine. Does that also mean even if you type the URL in the search engine, it still wouldn't show up? It's just hidden from the algorithms altogether?

Well, most of these pages have .onion or other pseudo-top-level domains.
The pseudo domains may use a syntax like the official top-level domains and they serve the same function in creating names for network endpoints. They are used only for special purposes, typically for addressing hosts that were not reachable via the Internet Protocol for use in services such as E-mail and Usenet via UUCP.


Now, for example the URL for the hidden wiki is http://kpvz7ki2v5agwt35.onion/. You could just copy the URL into google, but locating the URL itself is the difficult part.

Well I wasn't trying to go against the percentage, because I'm sure no one can even search that up.. probably not even in the deep web ;) Jk haha. I was just posting it to show how its different. Also I'm sure the 19tb isn't right lol.
