暗网、深网、明网--只是几个词还是更多？ 好吧，看到你们这么多人有兴趣了解互联网的黑暗奥妙，我决定制作这本小小的暗网指南。 因此，如果你想了解托尔洋葱如果您想了解 "丝绸之路"、政府秘密行动以及如何进入暗网，您当然来对了地方。 欢迎来到暗处，我的朋友们！ 我将是你们的向导。

现在，在我们深入探讨之前，我们需要做一个小小的表演，介绍一下深网和暗网的区别和清晰的网络。 由于作者的特权，我将从后面开始。 因此，清晰网是互联网的第一层，也是非常明显的一层。 基本上，当我们用谷歌或必应搜索猫咪视频或 YouTube 流行歌曲时，我们看到的就是这一层。
从技术角度看，清晰的网络定义了被各种搜索引擎索引、抓取和显示的内容。 不幸的是，清晰的网络只占约占互联网的 4. 那么，如果透明网络只是互联网的一小部分，其他部分又是怎么回事呢？
快连破解版
欢迎来到深网，这是互联网中没有被搜索引擎收录的部分。 深网并不可怕，它包含科学白皮书、医疗记录、税务相关信息、PayPal 订阅、军队公报等内容。 虽然深层网络隐藏在 HTTPS 表单之后，但只要你知道自己在找什么，就能访问其中的内容。
大多数托管在暗网上的网站都可以凭密码访问。 例如，如果您的医疗服务提供商有一个能够在线显示血液化验结果的网站，那么该网站的特定部分将托管在深网上--不会被谷歌或必应索引，只能通过密码访问。
哦，差点忘了说，深层网络约占所有互联网的 90%。
那什么是暗网？ 如果说明网是谷歌的闺蜜，深网是谷歌的秘密情人，那么暗网只能是谷歌的邪恶孪生兄弟或怪胎。
暗网占互联网的 6%，是一种最奇特的混合体--一方面，它是一个污水池，是毒贩、黑帽黑客、杀手和人口贩子的聚集地。 另一方面，由于其隐蔽性（我稍后会讲到），这个互联网折叠就像政治弃儿与自由世界人民之间的联络站。 想要提交匿名举报（举报人）的人也可以使用它。
暗网之所以受到这两类人的青睐，是因为它能够让任何人和任何事物都无所遁形。 隐私和匿名是暗网的核心价值。 整个暗网没有一个母服务器，而是由一群服务器和节点组成，只能通过洋葱式链接访问。 那么，这些是什么呢？
快连破解版
由于暗网上的一切都是去中心化的，因此没有爬虫来汇集信息。 就连网址（如果可以这么称呼的话）也与我们习惯的网址大相径庭。
例如，如果您想访问 YouTube 等网站，只需在地址栏中写入 URL（即)或使用 google.com 搜索该网站。 现在，在暗网上，你必须知道 URL 的最后一位小数和字符才能访问它。 所有暗网地址都包含由数字和字母组成的看似随机的字符串，后跟一个 .onion 扩展名。
同样，我们不应该忽视这样一个事实，即暗网是大部分犯罪活动的发生地。 你从新闻中听到的关于暗网的一切肮脏细节都是令人痛心的事实。
黑客在这里购买从用户或公司窃取的数据，或提供服务以换取比特币或其他形式的货币。加密货币. 不仅如此，如果你敢于深入挖掘，还能发现其他令人毛骨悚然的活动，如贩卖人口、儿童色情、酷刑或按需谋杀。
迷人的小地方，不是吗？ 这就是我们要去的地方。 现在，在访问暗网之前，你必须做几件安全方面的事情。 准备好了吗？ 准备？ 开始

VPN服务是您尝试访问暗网时的必备工具。 为什么？ 当然是因为法律的长臂。 从技术上讲，只要不从事任何非法活动，你就可以在这个互联网层自由上网。 然而，最近的一项美国最高法院的裁决认为即使随便浏览一下暗网也会让你惹上很多麻烦。
这意味着，如果当局拦截了你的暗网连接请求，他们就有足够的理由搜查你的住所并没收用于浏览的机器。 因此，请在浏览暗网之前下载一个 VPN，帮自己一个忙。 需要帮忙挑选吗？ 查看本条我的一位同事写的，可以缩小搜索范围。
快连破解版
暗网的第一条规则--永远不要使用默认浏览器在暗网上搜索东西。 像 Chrome、Opera 或 Firefox 这样的流行浏览器都有跟踪技术，会让你在当局的雷达上非常显眼。 因此，如果你仍然愿意这样做，我建议你下载 Tor它是迄今为止最安全、最易用的洋葱浏览器。
当然，也有一些人认为，Tor 是军方为秘密通信而制造的，因此在隐私方面并不可靠，因为人们相信它受到了监视。 我不会认为这是理所当然的，但话说回来，没有火就没有烟。 一切都取决于你。
快连破解版
言归正传，为什么要使用 Tor 浏览器而不是普通浏览器呢？ 说来话长，但还是值得一说。 如你所知，普通浏览器在用户的搜索请求和要访问的网站之间起中介作用。 通常情况下，您的查询会通过互联网服务提供商的 DNS，而 DNS 又会查询其他资源，帮助您获得所需的答案。
现在，有了 Tor，搜索请求在完成搜索请求之前会在多个 Tor 中继器之间跳来跳去。 你可能想知道 Tor 中继器到底是什么。 事实上，我们所说的 "透明网络 "是一个由公司或志愿者管理的服务器集合体。
同样的原则或多或少也适用于我们所说的暗网。 由于我们面对的是互联网的黑暗面，因此保密性和不可追踪性是与生俱来的。 因此，信息存储在由志愿者管理的 Tor 中继器上。
那么，当你想访问暗网洋葱时会发生什么呢？ 首先，如果你按照我的建议安装了 VPN，隧道信号将被加密。 这意味着你的互联网服务供应商不会知道你要搜索什么。 当然，它还是能看出你想访问 Tor 节点，但除此之外，它比鼹鼠还瞎。
从那里，它将被重定向到另一个节点，然后再重定向到另一个节点。 为什么要这么做？ 当然是为了匿名；"没有面包屑 "意味着别人无法追踪到你的信号。
快连破解版
祝贺你 你刚刚迈出了暗网之旅的第一步。 不过，在打开潘多拉魔盒的暗网奇观之前，你还必须采取一些预防措施。 回到 Tor 和 VPN。 关于暗网安全，目前还没有广泛的共识。
不过，每个人都认为只使用 Tor 是不够的。 它们两个（Tor 和 VPN）可以协同工作，而且有多种方法可以利用这对动态组合在暗网中穿行。 以下是你需要知道的。
快连破解版
听起来很有技术含量，不是吗？ 其实，这并不复杂--使用 Tor 快连破解版 方法就是在使用 Tor 浏览器之前先连接 VPN 服务。 不得不说，这是最流行、最安全的访问洋葱链接的方法，就我而言，这是天作之合： Tor 是一款出色的 "匿名器"，而 VPN 则可以保护你的隐私。
使用这种方法时，Tor 会对你的请求进行加密，然后不受阻碍地通过你的 ISP。 然后，它将通过 VPN 服务器隐藏你的 IP，并清除地理位置标签以及政府或 ISP 可能用来跟踪请求的其他元素。
下一步：您的请求将被传送到 Tor 入口节点，再由 Tor 入口节点传送到一个或多个 Tor 中继器。 从那里，它会被弹弓射向多个 Tor 出口节点。 之后，您的请求将被匹配到相应的网站。 这就是为什么它是迄今为止访问暗网内容的最佳方法。

虽然不是很安全，但还是可以使用的。 还记得 Tor 烤箱 VPN 的工作原理吗？ 那么，Tor 上的 VPN 基本上与之相反--信号不是先通过 VPN，而是先通过 Tor 网络，然后再通过 VPN。 为什么这种方法如此不受欢迎？ 因为它不如 Tor 快连破解版 安全。
如果信号先通过 Tor 网络，你的互联网服务供应商就能看到你正试图连接到 Tor 节点。 虽然没有人会因为你试图访问暗网而睁一只眼闭一只眼，但请记住，在美国等一些国家，即使是简单的闯入也会给你带来麻烦。
快连破解版
- 如果你信任 ISP，但不信任 VPN 提供商，那就太好了。
- 可绕过封锁的 Tor 节点。

- 网络服务提供商可以看到您试图访问洋葱内容。
- 易受端到端定时攻击。

我强烈建议大家使用虚拟机软件而不是本地安装的 Windows 在黑网上冲浪。 为什么呢？ 因为在虚拟环境中更容易控制恶意软件，而且可以完全控制。
就像在电影中，医生们在安全的玻璃罩后对致命的病毒株进行实验。 事实上，有很多虚拟机可供选择：Oracle VM 虚拟盒, VMware Fusion 和工作站, QEMU, 红帽虚拟化, 微软Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer，以及Xen项目仅举几例。
现在，如果你真的想把物理存储设备从等式中剔除，你可以使用我喜欢称之为一次性的操作系统--易于部署，如果偶然遇到任何麻烦，也可以轻松摆脱。 你所需要的只是一个 8GB 的优盘、一个安装包和几分钟的时间来启动和运行。
让我们一探究竟。
快连破解版
来源：来源：TechSpot TechSpot
步骤1. 给自己买一个优盘；8GB 即可，但如果你打算用它来做其他事情，可以买一个空间更大的优盘。 优盘不会出任何问题（可能）。
第2步. 上网下载Tails OS 的安装包.
注：Tails 是基于 Linux 的实时操作系统，可以从 U 盘或 DVD 启动。 我建议使用 U 盘，因为 DVD 在刻录完成后具有只读功能，而访问暗网需要写入一些内容。
别紧张，因为没人会发现你曾在暗网上乱搞的记录。 请注意，《尾巴》的安装包是 .img 格式，这意味着你需要能在优盘上刻录图像的软件。
我推荐使用 Universal USB Installer，它非常直观。 你也可以使用 Rufus。 你可以自由选择。 在本教程中，我使用的是 Universal。
第3步. 插入记忆棒并进行快速格式化。 确保使用 FAT32 来解决任何兼容性问题。 时间不会超过几秒钟。
第四步. 下载并安装通用 USB 安装程序或鲁弗斯.
第5步. 启动通用 USB 或 Rufus。
第6步. 下"。第 1 步：从下拉菜单中选择一个 Linux 发行版，将其安装到 USB 上选择尾巴.
第七步. 下"。步骤 2：选择 ubuntu*desktop*.iso"点击浏览按钮，选择下载的 Tails .img 文件。
第8步. 下"。第 3 步：仅选择 USB 闪存驱动器字母"，使用下拉框选择优盘的盘符。 如果没有显示，请选中 "现在显示所有驱动器 "选项。
第9步. 查看信息并点击创建完成后
请注意整个过程可能需要 5 到 30 分钟这取决于你的机器。 坐好，放松，等待安装完成。 准备就绪后，点击 "关闭 "按钮，一切就绪。
现在怎么办？ 好了，现在是时候启动 "尾巴"，修修补补一番了。
快连破解版
第一只靴子有问题？ 不用担心。 第一次总是很痛苦的。 只需遵循以下步骤即可。
- 将优盘保存在 USB 中。
- 重新启动你的计算机。
- none启动菜单的热键。
- 使用键盘选择相应的驱动器代号。 完成后，按 Enter 键。
- 等待 Tails OS 启动。 由于是第一次启动，可能需要一段时间。 请耐心等待。
- 配置 Tails 并部署 Tor + VPN。 是的，最新版本的 "洋葱路由器 "内置了 VPN。
- 准备好探索黑暗网络中有时令人毛骨悚然的黑暗奇观吧。
进入暗网的 3 个步骤
快连破解版
安装和配置 Tor 的工作都完成了吗？ 好极了！ 启动它，开始冲浪吧。 乍一看，Tor 和普通浏览器并没有什么不同--它有一个搜索栏、很多快速启动图标，屏幕中间还有一个剥洋葱图标。 那么，现在怎么办？ 好吧，让我们从小处着手。
虽然暗网上的内容与明网上的内容相比没有 "索引"，但你仍然可以使用搜索引擎来查找内容。 Hidden Wiki 和 Grams 就是其中的佼佼者。
耶，现在我找到了心中渴望的一切。 不尽然：由于暗网依赖于隐私和匿名，Wiki 和 Grams 等搜索引擎经常会返回错误的结果。 不管好坏，Hidden Wiki 都是开始探索的好地方。
快连破解版
把 Hidden Wiki 想象成维基百科的邪恶孪生兄弟--看起来差不多，但包含各种暗网类别的链接：编辑精选、志愿者、介绍点、金融服务、商业服务、电子邮件/信息服务、毒品（是的，这是真的）、博客& 论文、托管服务提供商、黑客服务、暗网电台（没有什么见不得人的；只是一些奇怪的电子曲调，偶尔还有点爵士乐）、文学（主要是关于黑客的资源，包括道德黑客和黑帽黑客）。
您还可以在这里找到让暗网变得漆黑一片的快速链接：合同杀手、强奸、酷刑或按需谋杀、儿童色情制品。
幸运的是，在 Hidden Wiki 中，每个网站后面都有一个简短的说明，这样用户就知道该怎么做了。 我的建议是坚持使用编辑精选。 如果你想找到一些有趣的编码资源，也可以看看博客& 论文部分。
如果你想聊天，可以随时进入聊天室。 Random Chat（随机聊天）等服务可将您与使用相同服务的随机用户联系起来。 之后会发生什么，完全取决于你自己。
你应该远离所有标有 "色情"、"银行卡盗刷服务"、"贝宝黑客"、"枪支"、"真假身份证和护照 "的东西。 相信我--这里有很多，而且每一个都在监控之下。 更不用说你会接触到一些绝对会让你洗上几次冷水澡的东西。
隐藏的维基不是网上唯一的搜索引擎。
快连破解版
- 鸭鸭去- 也可在透明网络上使用。 DuckDuckGo 最棒的地方在于它不会跟踪你的搜索。 可以说，它就是暗网中的谷歌。
- 火炬- Torch 被认为是第一个暗网搜索引擎，拥有一个包含数百万个洋葱链接的数据库。 它就像 Yelp 一样工作。 它甚至还附带了推荐，不过大多数推荐都附加了一些网站，比如臭名昭著的丝绸之路.
- 万维网虚拟图书馆- 如果说 Torch 和 Hidden Wiki 是老古董，那么 WWW 虚拟图书馆就是老古董中的老古董；就像搜索引擎中的长老之神一样。 更妙的是，WWW 虚拟图书馆包含的信息可以追溯到互联网诞生之初：日志、文档、图片以及介于两者之间的所有信息。
有趣的事实：虚拟图书馆由互联网界的乔治-华盛顿（George Washington）蒂姆-伯纳斯-李（Tim Berners-Lee）创建，并在很长一段时间内由他策划。 因此，如果你要查找晦涩难懂的互联网知识和非常古老的文件，伯纳斯-李的创意就是你的不二之选。
- 未经审查的隐藏维基- 觉得普通的 Hidden Wiki 很糟糕？ 等着看未经审查的版本吧。 顾名思义，它强调的是非常非法的活动，如贩卖人口、毒品、色情出错，以及其他在人类心灵阴暗角落里发酵的东西。
- ParaZite- 你知道谷歌搜索引擎中的 "想获得幸运吗？ 它能带你随机进入一个清晰的网站？ 那么，ParaZite 做的就是同样的事情。 当然，你可以像使用普通搜索引擎一样使用它，但如果你觉得好奇，也可以试试 "感觉（不）幸运 "功能。 小心操作，准备弹出并烧毁优盘吧。
- 丹尼尔- 丹尼尔，不管他是谁，都会在这里引导你穿越黑暗网络。 它拥有 7000 多个 .onion 分类链接供你探索。 它的内置功能会显示某个暗网网站是否在线，这样你就不必打开并加载每一个网站来查看它是否有效。
- 漫画图书馆- 如果您对漫画书情有独钟，那么偶然发现这个黑暗的网络小角落一定会让您激动不已。 这里有成千上万本关于......以及关于任何事物的漫画书供您下载。

信不信由你，暗网甚至还有网上商店。 不，它们并不都是卖毒品或枪支的。 据说，其中有些是合法的，而且有很好的折扣。 例如，如果您想购买笔记本电脑或智能手机，您可以去这些商店碰碰运气。 当然，所有的交易都是匿名的，以比特币为主导。 当然，如果你不喜欢比特币，也可以使用其他加密货币。
这些网站的主要问题是，有高达 50% 的网站都是假的，而且无法确定它们是否会送货。 顺便说一句，大多数网站都提供送货服务。
当然，你不能用自己的家庭住址在暗网下单，但显然，他们可以向世界各地发货，除了一些中东国家和朝鲜。 实话告诉你吧，我曾被诱惑购买了一部三星 Galaxy S10 Plus；它才 250 美元。 我的建议是：看，但不要碰（买）。
快连破解版
- CStore- 任何种类的电子产品。 您可以使用加密货币或礼品卡进行购买。 他们甚至接受全额托管。
- 苹果公司 宫殿- 一切苹果产品：笔记本电脑、台式机、手机和配件。 价格低得令人难以置信。
- 欧洲枪- 这个名字说明了一切：在欧洲市场上销售枪支。 该网站甚至吹嘘自己是欧洲头号军火商。
- 用比特币购买卡马格拉- 如果你的 "爆米花 "不管用了，你可以试试 "Kamagra"，它是伟哥的黑网廉价版。
- 黄金和钻石- 该网站提供 "真 "钻石和黄金。 (不幸的是，它只向德国和美国发货。
- 海盗安全- 合法黑客，为您服务！
- 假护照- 我想这是不言自明的。
- SOL 的美国公民身份- 出售美国公民身份；想也知道。
- 数字黑帮- 黑别人电脑的最流氓的方法。 显然，这些是 Ronin 黑客，他们可以被雇来进行漏洞利用、网络黑客攻击、密码找回和各种间谍活动。
- 洋葱身份服务- 身份证和护照享受夏季折扣。 仅限比特币。
快连破解版
永远记住，暗网是一个以人为本的社区。 因此，想方设法与你的暗网好友和/或客户保持联系是很自然的事情。 您可以使用多种电子邮件和即时通讯服务，如果您想在暗网游戏中更上一层楼，强烈建议您选择其中一种。
就功能而言，我认为普通的 IMAP、POP3 和 SMT 服务与你可以用来在暗网上通信的东西没有太大区别。 让我们从电子邮件客户端开始。
- 安全邮件- 全面的电子邮件服务。 设计非常简单：你可以撰写、发送和接收电子邮件。 除去跟踪、窃听和其他隐私问题，它拥有电子邮件客户端的所有优点。
- 崛起none
- 莱兰托斯- 付费电子邮件服务。 该服务具有很好的安全性和隐私保护功能，但它的注册表最不可靠、最容易走弯路。 请自行承担风险。
- Bitmail.la#@#– another pay-to-use email client. Has many features like IMAP, SMTP, and POP3 support, and a 500MB mailbox. Apparently, a lifetime membership costs

how to get on the dark web (3)
Dark web, deep web, clear web – just words or more? Well, seeing just how many of you are interested in hearing all about the dark wonders of the internet, I’ve decided to make this small dark web guide. So, if you want to learn all about Tor Onion, Silk Road, secret, hush-hush Governmental ops, and how to get on the dark web, of course, you came to the right place. Welcome to the shadows, my friends! I will be your guide.
快连破解版
Now, before we dig into it of, we’ll need to stage a little show-and-tell about the differences between the deep web, dark web, and clear net. I’ll start with the later because of the writer’s privilege. So, the clear web is the very first and very visible layer of the Internet. Basically, it’s what we see when we do a Google or Bing search for things like cat videos or popular YouTube songs.
From a technical standpoint, a clear web defines the content that is indexed, crawled, and displayed by the various search engines. Unfortunately, the clear web accounts for approximately 4 percent of the Internet. So, if the clear web is only a very tiny portion of the Internet, what happened to the rest?
快连破解版
Welcome to the deep web, the part of the Internet that’s not indexed by search engines. There’s nothing spooky about the deep web; it contains stuff like scientific white papers, medical records, tax-related info, PayPal subscriptions, army communique, and much more. Although the deep web’s hiding behind HTTPS forms, its contents can be accessed if you know what you’re looking for.
Most of the websites hosted on the dark web can be accessed on a credential basis. For instance, if your health provider has a website capable of displaying bloodwork tests online, that particular section will be hosted on the deep web – it will not be indexed by Google or Bing and can only be accessed via password.
Oh, nearly forgot to mention that the deep web accounts for about 90 percent of all Internet.
What’s the dark web then? Well, if the clear web is Google’s BFF and the deep web, its secret lover, then the dark web can only be the evil twin or the oddball.
Accounting for 6 percent of the Internet, the dark web is a most peculiar blend – on the one hand, it’s a cesspool, a rendezvous place for drug dealers, black hat hackers, hitmen, and human traffickers. On the other hand, due to its covert nature (I’ll get to that in a sec), this Internet fold acts like a liaison between political outcasts and people the free world. It’s also used by people who want to submit anonymous tips (whistleblowers).
The dark web is favored by both groups because of its ability to render anyone and anything invisible. Privacy and anonymity are what you might consider the core values of the darknet. There’s no such thing as a mother-server that hosts the entire dark web, but rather a swarm of servers and nodes that can only be accessed through onion-type links. So, what are those?
快连破解版
Since everything’s decentralized on the dark web, there are no crawlers to bring together the information. Even the URLs, if we can call them that, are infinitely different from what we’re used to.
For instance, if you want to access a site like YouTube, all you need to do is to write the URL in the address bar (i.e. ) or search for the website using google.com. Now, on the dark web, you’ll have to know the URL right to the last decimal and character to access it. All dark web addresses contain seemingly random strings comprised of numbers and letters, followed by a .onion extension.
Again, we shouldn’t lose sight of the fact that the dark web’s the place where the bulk of criminal activities take place. Everything little sordid detail you heard over the news about the dark web is painfully true.
This is the place where hackers come to purchase data stolen from users or companies or offer their services in exchange for Bitcoins or other forms of cryptocurrency. More than that, if you dare to dig deep enough, you can uncover other hair-raising activities such as human trafficking, child pornography, torture, or murder on demand.
Charming little spot, isn’t it? Well, that’s where we’re heading. Now, before you can access the dark web, there a couple of things you must do, security-wise. Ready? Set? Go!

VPN services are a must when you’re attempting to access the dark web. Why? Because of the long arm of the law, of course. Technically, you are free to surf on this Internet layer, provided that you don’t engage in any illegal activities. However, a recent ruling by the US Supreme Court deemed that even casually browsing the darknet can get you in a lot of hot water.
This means that if the authorities would intercept your darknet connection request, they would have had enough reason to search your house and confiscate the machine used for browsing. So, do yourself a favor and download 快连破解版 before messing about on the dark web. Need a hand picking one? Check out this article written by one of my colleagues to narrow down your search.
快连破解版
The first rule of the dark web – never, ever use your default browser to search for stuff on the darknet. Popular browsers like Chrome, Opera, or Firefox have tracking technologies that make you very visible on the authorities’ radar. So, if you’re still willing to do this, I would recommend you download Tor, which is, by far, the safest and easy-to-use onion browser.
Of course, there are others who would argue that Tor being made by the military for covert communication makes it unreliable, privacy-wise since it’s believed to be watched. I wouldn’t take that one for granted, but, then again, there’s no smoke without fire. It’s all up to you.
快连破解版
Anyway, going back to Tor – why use this particular browser over a regular one? Well, that’s a rather long story, but worth telling, nonetheless. As you know, a regular browser mediates between the user’s search request and the site about to be accessed. Normally, your query will go through the ISP’s DNS, which in turn consults other resources to help you get the answer you were looking for.
Now, with Tor, the search request kind of bounces around multiple Tor relays before completing your search request. You’re probably wondering about what the heck are Tor relays. Well, what we call the clear web is, in fact, a conglomerate of servers, which are managed either by companies or on volunteer-basis.
The same principle applies more or less to what we call the dark web. Since it’s the dark side of the Internet we’re dealing with here, secrecy and untraceability become inherent. Thus, the info’s stored on Tor relays which are managed by volunteers.
So, what happens when you want to access a dark web onion? First of all, if you followed my advice and installed 快连破解版, the tunneling signal will be encrypted. This means that your ISP won’t have a clue about what you’re about to search for. Sure, it can still see that you want to access a Tor node, but other than it’s blinder than a mole.
From there, it will be redirected to another node and then another one. Why does it do that? For anonymity reasons, of course; ‘no breadcrumbs’ means that there’s no way for someone to trace the signal back to you.
快连破解版
Congrats! You just took the first steps of your dark web journey. Still, there are a couple of more precautions you must take before you can pop open Pandora’s box of dark Internet wonders. Getting back to Tor 快连破解版. There’s no broad consensus on dark web safety.
However, everyone tends to agree that using only Tor is not enough. The two of them (Tor 快连破解版) work in tandem and, as it happens, there are several ways of tunneling your way all the way through the dark web using this dynamic duo. Here’s what you need to know.
快连破解版
Sounds very techie, doesn’t it? Well, it’s really not that complicated – using the Tor 快连破解版 method means connecting to 快连破解版 service before using the Tor browser. Have to say that this is the most popular and safest method to access onion links, and, on my part, a marriage made in Heaven: Tor’s an excellent ‘anonymizer’, 快连破解版 safeguards your privacy.
When using this method, Tor will encrypt your request, which will pass through your ISP unhindered. From there, it will go through 快连破解版 server that conceals your IP and wipes geo-locations tags and other elements your Government or ISP might use to track the request.
Next step – your request will be transferred to Tor entry nod which in turn transfers to one or more Tor relays. From there, it gets slingshot to several Tor exit nodes. Afterwards, your request will be matched with the appropriate website. Tricky, but effective; that’s why it’s, by far, the best method to access dark web content.

- Session logs are not stored (metadata, IP address).
- Traffic’s completely encrypted.

Not very safe, but it’s still useable. Recall how Tor 快连破解版 works? Well, VPN over Tor is basically its opposite – instead of going through 快连破解版 first, the signal passes through the Tor network, before going through 快连破解版. Why is this method so unpopular? Because it’s not as safe as Tor 快连破解版.
If the signal goes through the Tor network first, your ISP will be able to see that you are attempting to connect to a Tor node. Though no one should bat an eye just because you’re attempting to access the dark web, keep in mind that in some countries, like the United States, even a simple foray can get you in trouble.

I strongly recommend surfing on the dark web using virtual machine software instead of your locally installed Windows. Why? Because it’s easier to contain malware in a virtual environment, which can be fully controlled.
It’s like in those movies where the doctors are experimenting on deadly viral strains from behind the safety of a glass enclosure. And, as it happens, there are plenty of VMs to choose from: Oracle VM Virtualbox, VMware Fusion and Workstations, QEMU, Red Hat Virtualization, Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer, and Xen Project, just to name a few.
Now, if you really want to take the physical storage devices out of the equation, you can use what I like to call a disposable operating system – easy to deploy and to get rid of if you by chance you run into any trouble. All you’ll need is an 8GB thumb drive, an installation package, and a couple of minutes to get things up and running.
Let’s dig in.
快连破解版
Source: TechSpot
Step 1. Get yourself a thumb drive; 8GB will do, but you can buy one with more space if you plan on using it for anything else. Nothing will happen to the stick (probably).
Step 2. Hop on the web and download the installation package for Tails OS.
Note: Tails is a Linux-based live operating system which can be booted from a USB stick or DVD. I recommend using a stick since DVDs have a read-only function after you’re done burning well and accessing the dark web required a bit of writing.
Chill, because nobody will ever find a record of you ever fiddling around the darknet. Note that Tails’ installation package is the .img format, which means that you’ll need software capable of burning images on your thumb drive.
My recommendation is Universal USB Installer, which is very intuitive. You can also go along with Rufus. The choice is yours. For this tutorial, I’ve used Universal.
Step 3. Insert the stick and do a quick format. Be sure to use FAT32 to root out any compatibility issues. It shouldn’t take longer than a few seconds.
Step 4. Download and install Universal USB Installer or Rufus.
Step 5. Fire up Universal USB or Rufus.
Step 6. Under “Step 1: Select a Linux Distribution from the dropdown to put on your USB” select Tails.
Step 7. Under “Step 2: Select your ubuntu*desktop*.iso”, click on the browse button and select the downloaded Tails .img file.
Step 8. Under “Step 3: Select your USB Flash Drive Letter Only”, use the dropdown box to select your thumb drive’s letter. If it doesn’t show up, check the “now showing all drives” option.
Step 9. Review the info and hit Create when you’re done.
Note that the process can take anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes depending on your machine. Sit back, relax, and wait until the installation’s done. When you’re ready, hit the Close button and you’re all set.
Now what? Well, now it’s time to fire up Tails and do a little bit of tinkering.

3 steps to get on the dark web
快连破解版
All done installing and configuring Tor? Great! Fire it up and let’s surf. At first glance, Tor doesn’t look that different from your regular browser – it has a search bar, lots of quick-launch icons, the peeled onion icon smack in the middle of the screen. So, now what? Well, let’s start small.
Although content on the dark web is not as ‘indexed’ compared to the one on the clear web, you can still use search engines to find stuff. The Hidden Wiki and Grams are the heavyweights here.
Yay, now I found everything my heart longs for. Not quite: since the dark web relies on privacy and anonymity, search engines like the Wiki and Grams frequently return false results. No matter – good or not, the Hidden Wiki is a great place to start exploring.

Think of the Hidden Wiki as Wikipedia’s evil twin – looks more or less the same, but contains links to various dark web categories: editor’s picks, volunteer, introduction points, financial services, commercial services, email/messaging, drugs (yes, it’s the real deal), blogs & essays, hosting providers, hacking services, darknet radio (nothing shady about that; just some weird electronic tunes and, occasionally, a bit of jazz), literature (mostly resources on hacking, both ethical and black hat).
You can also find quick links here to the stuff that makes the dark web pitch-black dark: contract killers, rape, torture, or murder on demand, child pornography.
Fortunately, in Hidden Wiki, every website is followed by a brief description so that the user knows what to expect. My advice to you would be to stick with the editor’s pick. You can also take a look at the blogs & essays section if you want to find some nifty coding resources.
If you’re feeling chatty, you can always access a chat room. Services like Random Chat connects you with random people using the same service. What happens after that, it’s all to you.
You should stay away from everything labeled “porn”, “card skimming services”, “PayPal hacks”, “firearms”, “real fake IDs and passports”. Believe me – there are plenty to go around and each and every one of them are being kept under surveillance. Not to mention the fact that you’ll get exposed to some stuff that will definitely make you take several cold showers.
Hidden Wiki’s not the only search engine online.

- DuckDuckGo – also available on the clear web. The best thing about DuckDuckGo is that it doesn’t track your searches. One can say that it’s the Google of the dark web.
- Torch – considered the first dark web search engine, Torch boasts a database of several million onions links. Works just like Yelp. It even comes with recommendations, although most of them append websites like the infamous Silk Road.
- WWW Virtual Library – if Torch and Hidden Wiki are old, the triple-W Virtual Library is Cthulhu-old; as in the elder god of search engines. What’s even better is the fact the WWW Virtual Library contains info dating back to the beginning of the Internet: logs, documents, pictures, and everything in between.
Fun fact: The Virtual Library was founded and, for a very long time, curated by none other than Tim Berners-Lee, the George Washington of the Internet. So, if you’re looking for obscure Internet facts, very old documents, Berners-Lee’s brainchild is the way to go.
- Uncensored Hidden Wiki – think regular Hidden Wiki is bad? Wait till you see the uncensored version. As the name suggests, it emphasizes very illegal activities like human trafficking, drugs, pornography went wrong, and other things that fester in the dark corners of the human mind.
- ParaZite – do you know the “want to get Lucky?” button in Google’s search engine? The one that takes you on a random clear web site? Well, ParaZite does the same thing. Sure, you can use it like any run-of-the-mill search engine, but if you’re feeling curious, you can also try the “feeling (un)lucky” feature. Proceed with caution and prepare to eject and torch the thumb drive.
- Daniel – Daniel, whomever that may be, is here to guide you through the dark web. It hosts more than 7000 .onion categorized links that you can explore. A built-in feature shows you if a certain dark web site is online, so you don`t have to open and load every one of them to see if it works.
- Comic Book Library – those of you who have a passion for comic books will be thrilled to stumble upon this little dark web corner. Here are literally thousands of comic books about… well quite about anything, that you can download.

Believe it or not, the dark web even has online shops. And no, they don’t all sell drugs or firearms. Some of them are, reportedly, legit and have great bargains. For instance, if you want to buy a laptop or a smartphone, you can try your luck in one of these shops. Of course, all transactions are anonymous and Bitcoin-driven. Sure, you can use other cryptocurrencies if Bitcoin’s not your cup of tea.
The major issue with these websites is that a whopping 50 percent are fake, and there’s no way of telling for sure if they’ll deliver or not. By the way, most have shipping services.
Of course, you can’t use your home address for dark web drop-offs, but apparently, they can ship all over the world, minus some Middle Eastern countries and North Korea. To tell you the truth, I was tempted into purchasing a Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus; it was only 250 bucks. My advice: look, but don’t touch (buy).

- CStore – any kind of electronics. You can make purchases in cryptocurrency or gift cards. They even accept full escrow.
- Apple Palace – everything Apple: laptops, desktops, phones, and accessories. All at ludicrously low prices.
- EuroGuns – the name says it all: guns sold on the European market. The website even boasts that it’s the number one European arms dealer.
- Kamagra for Bitcoins – if your boomstick ain’t working no more, you can try Kamagra, which is the dark web and cheap version of Viagra.
- Gold & Diamonds – site offers ‘real’ diamonds and gold. (Un)fortunately, it only ships to Germany and the United States.
- PirateSec – legit hackers, at your service!
- Fake Passports – I think it’s self-explanatory.
- SOL’s United States Citizenship – sells American citizenships; go figure.
- Digital Gangster – the most gangsta way to hack someone’s computer. Apparently, these are Ronin hackers who can be hired for exploits, web hacking, password retrieval, and all-purpose espionage.
- Onion Identity Services – summer discounts for IDs and passports. Bitcoins only.

Always remember that the dark web is a people-centric community. So, it’s only natural to find ways to keep in touch with your darknet buddies and/or customers. There are several email and IM services which you can use, and it’s highly recommended to pick one if you want to step up your dark web game.
In terms of functionality, I don’t think there are too many differences between regular IMAP, POP3, and SMT services and the stuff you can use to communicate on the dark web. Let’s start with the email clients.
- secMail – full-fledged email service. Pretty simplistic in design: you can compose, send, and receive emails. All the great things about an email client, minus the tracking, eavesdropping, and other privacy issues.
- RiseUp – this one offers secure emailing services and also comes with a chat option. It doesn`t store communication records and you need to get an invitation code before you can create an account.
- Lelantos – pay-to-use email service. Great security and privacy features, but it has one of the most unreliable and sidetrackable registration forms. Proceed at your own risk.
- Bitmail.la – another pay-to-use email client. Has many features like IMAP, SMTP, and POP3 support, and a 500MB mailbox. Apparently, a lifetime membership costs $0.60.
- Mail2Tor – a free email service which, reportedly, works on both dark and clear web.
- Guerilla Mail – creates a disposable email address.
- AnonInbox – pay-to-use email client. Supports IMAP, SMTP, and POP3; charges around 0.1 BTC per year.
- Protonmail – has both paid and free subscriptions. Boasts the browser-encrypted email technology.

Right. Let’s now talk about social media and instant messaging. Believe it or not, Zuckerberg’s Facebook has a darknet version. People mostly use it for covert communication, anonymous tips submission, and stuff like that.
Sure, it’s not as secure as the clear web version, but it’s there and totally legal to use. Hidden Facebook is hardly the only social media client on the dark web. Check out the list below for the ‘hottest’ dark web clients.
- BlackBook – works pretty much the same way as Facebook: you can chat, send pictures and friend requests, post status updates, and join groups. Though competing head-to-head with Facebook Onion, BlackBook’s prone to hacking. Reportedly, the client was disabled at least a couple of times in 2018.
- Torbook – very similar to BlackBook. Some claim that both of them rose at around the same time, despite the creators not knowing each other.
- The Campfire – gather around the campfire, folks to hear the tale of tales. The name’s rather suggestive – a big chatroom; everybody can join, and the topics can be anything from the latest trends in the music industry to how you can hide a human body.
- Lucky Eddie’s Home – scripted chat room that sports one of the most efficient file-uploading system on the dark web. Just like any IM app, you can send or receive messages, join or create groups, and send files.
- MadIRC Chat Server – if you’re over 30, you certainly remember the mIRC era. Surprisingly enough, IRC off-spins are still being used today, mostly for covert conversations or intranet communication. MadIRC Chat works just like a regular IRC – no or subscription required. Just pick a username and join in on the fun. I know sharing is caring, but in this case, I would advise you not to share any personal details because you may never know who’s on the other side of the line.
- Chat with strangers – think Omegle, but on the dark web. Just fire up the client, connect to a chat room, and that’s it. You can’t send or receive files. Still, if you’re lucky, perhaps you can partake in a scintillating conversation.

As I’ve mentioned, the dark web isn’t just a place of eternal torment, teeming with drug dealers, human traffickers, and a hitman. It’s also used by journalists, advocacy group members, and political refugees in hiding. Reuters, Fox, NBC, CNN – all of them keep open dark web channels to receive anonymous tips from whistleblowers.
Advocacy groups are also reaping the advantages of the darknet because, here, the term of censorship is as popular as HTTPS. And finally, we have political outcasts, refugees, and people who want to get in touch with the outside world, being from a totalitarian country that suppresses all means of communication and information.
Of course, there are your run-of-the-mill congregations, which will worship anything from Lucifer to the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
If you’re interested in subversive journalism, here are a couple of sites you can try visiting:
- Soylent News – a trans spectrum darknet news aggregator. Features webmaster-moderated forums on which you can submit comments. You can also get involved by either submitting tips or writing news.
- ProPublica – historically, ProPublica’s the first major news outlet to feature well, a darknet outlet. With an activity spanning almost four years, ProPublica managed to expose power abuses and blow the lid on covert activities conducted by governmental institutions. Although quite young compared to other darknet news outlets, ProPublica’s work was rewarded with five Pulitzer Prizes for Feature Writing. The last one was awarded to Hannah Dreier, the investigative journalist who covered the gangs of Los Angeles.
- BBC Tor Mirror – In March 2022, after invading Ukraine, Russia removed BBC World News from broadcast. On the list of censored media services were also Deutsche Welle, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, and Voice of America. Allegedly, the giant media companies were ”spreading false information about war in Ukraine”. But for the moment, you can still get a hint of what`s going on around the world (and Putin doesn`t appprove) via BBC Tor Mirror. If you live or travel in a country that frowns upon freedom of speech and insists on naming a war a „special military operation”, there`s your breath of fresh air.

We already went 快连破解版s, anonymizing web browsers, and disposable operating systems, so I won’t bother reminding you about those.
Here are some other things you can try to bolster your security:

Sounds rather off, doesn’t it? Well, there’s a reason why it’s recommended to browse with a minimized or rescaled window – you can be tracked based on your active window’s dimensions (yeah, they really can do that). So, do yourself a favor and rescale that Tor window as much as you can before proceeding.

Tor has an in-build slider which lets you adjust the level of security. Just click on the onion icon and choose Security Settings. Adjust the slider until the cursor points to the safest. This means that the JavaScript will be disabled by default on every website and some symbols and images will not be displayed.

I’ll go further than that and say stay away from darknet shops. Maybe some of them are legit, but are you really willing to take that chance? Still, if you’re really itching to purchase a new phone or God knows whatever, I would advise you to stick with Bitcoins or your favorite crypto coin. Using credit or debit cards for this sort of thing is like painting a big bullseye on your bank account while yelling: “come here and take my money.”

When you’re done surfing or shopping on the dark web, don’t forget to shut down Tails. The major advantage of using a live OS such as Tails is that, on shut down, the OS wipes itself from the thumb drive you’ve installed it. That’s why it’s never a good idea to burn Tails on DVD.

Great life advice, but it’s even more valuable where the darknet is concerned. Keep in mind that many criminal organizations use the dark web to communicate or sell merchandise. Some of these channels are under watch. You may very well end up in the middle of a stakeout that could turn ugly. So, if the website looks fishy, close the tab, and forget about it.

This is where I get off – been a long journey and I hope I’ve managed to at least change your perspective on the dark web. So, to wrap it up nice and tight, remember to take all the necessary precautions. Don`t use your debit or credit card, stay away from dubious groups, and have fun while you’re at it. As always, for comments, rants, ad-libs, or beer donations, shoot me a comment. Cheers!
