If you're one of those folks who likes to keep things tucked away from prying eyes, then welcome to the Dark Web.
The Dark Web is an umbrella term for any anonymous network of websites, which operate through Tor (The Onion Router). As the name suggests, this is not your everyday internet. The Dark Web is filled with sites that cannot be accessed through traditional search engines like Google, Bing or Yahoo.

Instead of .com, .net or .org - it’s .onion. That's because these sites don't operate on the same system as the regular internet - but rather on a separate encrypted network.
