Dark Web

The Dark Web equates to approximately 7% of the overall World Wide Web. The Dark Web features websites that are associated with illegal activity, although it is important to note that many websites within the Dark Web are there simply for anonymity/privacy purposes and may be perfectly legal. The websites of the Dark Web are often accessible as Tor Hidden Services, which means that both the individual accessing the website and the website itself will use Tor in order to maintain anonymity.
