you know those websites that start with https? those 980,000,000 websites? the ones that you can visit by just opening chrome or google, and typing it into the adress bar? those are websites belonging to a category of the internet called the "surface web". and the surface web only makes up about 5% of the internet. the other 95% of the internet are made up by 2 other large categories that categorize websites that are not indexed by search engines—meaning they cannot be found on the internet without a url. these 2 categories are called the deep web, and the dark web. the deep web is defined as a website that is not indexed by search engines—meaning you cannot find them on google search, you need to use a specific url to find it. this category also includes websites that use paywalls, and other identifiers like for an example, your email, to hide their content. the dark web, on the other hand, is defined as websites that are inaccessible without a special software—allowing website users and operators to remain completely anonymous and untraceable. you can access the dark web using TOR—the onion router. most dark web websites have a url that end in .onion
