The dark web is basically a collection of websites, not accessible using conventional browsers such as Google Chrome, Internet Explorers etc. The dark web can be accessed using an anonymous browsing tool, Tor.

You actually don't need a passcode to access the dark web...

Though some of the websites require you have invites to join.

Basically, you need the Tor Browser to access the deep web and get dark web links you can access.

Do you know the Dark Web is actually still a subset of what we call the deep web?

Here's a quick view of the gist:

Hmmm…. The Deep Web?! How deep you ask? Very deep I say. Considering that about 96% of the entire web is said to be deep. The remaining about 4% of the web, Surface Web, is what you and I see regularly on the Internet.

Google, Wikipedia, Youtube, Facebook, all other websites we can get access to via search engines name it, Bing, Ask, Google, etc., they all contribute to just about 4% of the entire web. Mind blowing, isn’t it?

So what is the Deep Web?

What you see on the surface web!

The Deep Web is a whole new world of possibilities both negative and positive possibilities. Loads of content accessible to authorized users and hidden from the general public reside here.

Mailbox contents – deep web; private online backup – deep web, anything the general public cannot lay their hands or eyes on is the Deep Web. Websites that you cannot access on a normal, routine day-to-day net surfing abound here. The contents of the deep web are unindexed, that is cannot be accessed via search engines, contain private information only authorized users have access to and also laden with dangerous contents.

Pretty much anything can be done with the Deep Web, anything! Rich repositories of data and a lot of good stuff that can never be found on the surface abounds and also a lot of bad stuff are present in a small part of the deep web that is very dark...
