Looking for some cool things to do on tor browser that are not illegal…
FYI, what you’re talking about is the ; the Deep Web is different. “” refers to places on the regular Internet that are not indexed by Google and the other major search engines; you don’t need Tor to get to them.
@boatswain well that’s disappointing, I really thought @GreyTechnician was talking about the deep web and was wondering what cool data troves were out there.
Yeah I bet there’s a bunch of cool stuff out there. Might even be more interesting than the Dark Web.
r/opendirectories was a place for this.
Oh neat, thanks!
You don’t need the leading exclamation mark if you’re not embedding media.
Download copyrighted books. It’s a civil case, not a felony!
It is not illegal to download copyrighted books or media files.
Civil was the case that they gave me
Not sure what you mean?
That is certainly not true. It is illegal. It is often civil, but can be criminal copyright infringement based on specific criteria.
You are not allowed to share such files with others online but you can download them and it’s NOT illegal. I don’t know where you live but I’m willing to bet the law works the same there. It is a law (in my country it translates to “Fair use” but I cannot guarantee that is the name in yours) that states if a media file (picture, music, video, document) was posted online, you are free to assume that the person who posted it had the (copy)right to do it. Without this law the Internet wouldn’t be able to work as it does. Websites are not displayed on your monitor from thin air, your browser downloads their content automatically, caches it on the hard drive and from there it’s loaded and displayed in the browser. Without this law in place, by visiting any website that contains any image, video etc. you would be breaking copyright law because those pictures etc. would download to your hard drive. This law does not apply to software.
100% not true in the US.
Unlikely to be prosecuted or sued, but not true.
What country are you from?
WTO governs a lot of global copyright issues. I would be surprised the fair use exception allows you to download copyrighted content except for a few limited fair use purposes, ie education. And with very specific guidelines as to what qualifies as fair use.
Regular every day browsing
With the caveat that you should absolutely not do banking or log into anything personal on the clearnet from TOR, although it would surprise me if most sites even allow traffic from known exit nodes. There are a disturbing amount of exit nodes that absolutely monitor outgoing traffic, and if one of those is malicious, the owner can and will steal your shit. And that’s just the exit nodes not controlled by law enforcement.
I wouldn’t recommend using TOR without first routing through a VPN, as entry guard nodes are another target for law enforcement, and receive your IP address when you connect.

Look for the hidden wiki, it gives a good overview
Seek ye the Directory Unknown, where ye may find some sort of indexed information

Oh
Go here and peruse: darkfailenbsdla5mal2mxn2uz66od5vtzd5qozslagrfzachha3f3id.onion
Look, but don’t touch.
You should probably say what it is before just sending people there. No way I’m opening something where someone says “look, but don’t touch.”
dark.fail is sort of like Down Detector, but for a bunch of popular onion sites. It doesn’t tell you anything about what the sites are for, just tells you whether or not they are online and gives you the current URL to access them.
Yeah no shit lol
That’s a really good point. It’s the onion link for dark.fail. It’s a registry of some interesting onion sites. Not all legal to use, though, but all should be legal to peruse. (look, but don’t touch). Sorry about that.
Also have a look at daunt.link
You can buy drugs. It’s illegal but it is cool
Explore. tor.taxi might be a good starting point.
Tor these days is useless. Just shit you can get elsewhere except you’re going trough the FBI’s exit node. The kinds of interesting stuff you could only get from the dark web has all moved onto the federation, and, well, you’re here, aren’t you?
EDIT: Also a few compromised entry nodes have been distributing malware so make sure you have an actual AV not a scam one like Norton.
Random memory, but the early Norton suite on the Mac was like this amazing Swiss Army knife; it has fallen from great heights to the pit of hell.
You don’t go through exit nodes if you stay on onion sites
Exit nodes are a fundamental part of how TOR works. You still use an exit node on onion sites, you just go through more nodes up to that point.whoops I got exit nodes and entry nodes mixed up.
I’m not sure if my answers will help as I have gone super deep into the deep web and not everyone can do that, which is probably natural given what I’ve done. I’ve gone far enough down that I can find places where I can randomly spectate on things like Mario Kart battle tournaments (as in I found Nintendo’s stash servers).
The other problem is, if something isn’t illegal on the deep web, it’s typically some generic thing like Galaxy3 that has no extraordinary aspects and is just taking advantage of the privacy, though even then people make it illegal, which is why they closed Blackbook (even the tame things on the shops are often stolen items). It’s why I use it surprisingly infrequently.
Someone here gave perhaps the best suggestion, to find lost media you can’t find elsewhere. Or you can do this.

Thanks Pipey.
There’s an .onion address for anonymous cat facts.
Thank god the government won’t know I enjoy cat facts.

I’m old but I’ve heard it’s dead and that everyone uses Telegram to buy drugs now
Using Telegram seems like a dumb idea for illegal things. Nearly as bad an idea as using Discord. Group chats on Telegram aren’t end-to-end encrypted.
People in my town use facebook groups. I’m serious.

So Telegram drugs are real and not honeypots for cops?
Dude. IDK. I haven’t had the balls to try it. I have met one person who bought weed regularly from it but IDK how you go about making a contact or anything. Maybe that’s what the Dark Web is for nowadays.
Telegram is where all the illegal shit has moved to because they genuinely give zero fucks. I flat out won’t go there any more.
If it’s not illegal, why would it be on the deep web? Legal businesses that want to be on the web can be without much effort.
For implicit privacy. Everything we’re doing here can be traced back to our physical locations by numerous intermediate parties. Saying that only illegal behavior belongs on the dark web is the same as saying only criminals need encryption or locks on their door.
He’s probably looking for weird cult/conspiracy/horror rabbit holes. idk if any exist on the deep web but those are always fun.
I helped someone write bits for a cult one years ago, it was like a spooky story one where at first it seemed like a crazy Christian guy trying to get guys to do gay stuff and you’re supposed to be fascinated by this group of ultra religious guys he’s got following him and trying to pick up lurid details about their homophobic gay sex cult - but then you slowly realise it’s not just the he wanted their bodies, he wanted their bodies and you realise his followers are arranged neatly on his bed as dead as the day he saved them…
It was like a breadcrumbs one, the main stuff was on the internet and you could follow the trail but then you had to go darkweb to get the dramatic conclusion – the darkweb sites would never work properly though and so he never actually ended up doing anything with it.

And memes.
Who goes on the Dark Web to view memes??
Someone looking for particularly spicy memes
I think those are 2spicy4me
Looking for things that aren’t illegal on the “dark web” is like asking where you can buy legal items on the black market
