Getting to know the Internet
What is a Internet?
The Internet is a vast network that links together millions of computers around the world. . In the 1960s, people were working on ideas that later became the Internet. • In 1969, the first four major computer centers in the United States were linked. By 1973, the network was international. • In 1983, the Internet protocols went online for the first time. • Two major groups worked on the development of the Internet: the United States military and university researchers.
Type of Internet?
Three Type of Internet
SURFACE WEB
DEEP WEB
DARK WEB
1.SURFACE WEB
Only represents about 5% of total internet content Sites that can be indexed and accessed from search engines Visible to average users without using The Onion Router (Tor) or any special software Made up of popular.com, net, and.org sites.The open web includes any content that is indexed by search engines and shows up in search results in Google, Bing,Facebook,YouTube,etc.
2.DEEP WEB
Represents about 90% of total internet.content Sites that can't be accessed from search engines Examples email inboxes, banking information, credit card accounts These sites are protected by authentication forms, passwords, and security firewalls.Academic databases Medical records Financial records Legal documents Some scientific reports Some government reports Subscription-only information Some organization-specific repositories.The deep web contains a wealth of private content that is not indexed or accessible via a search engine. It includes anything that requires sign-in credentials and includes content that explicitly blocks web crawlers from indexing.90% of the content on the web The 'DEEP WEB' is the content my of databases that cannot be found or indexed by conventional search engines. Government Databases . Government websites Medical Records alamy Academic Information • Legal Documents Scientific Reports Subscription Information Banking and Financial Databases.
Deep Web Layer 1
(In Onionland, many of us still refer to layer one as clearnet or surface web): Unlisted pages. These are websites that are accessible via a normal browser, yet are not included in search engines' search results. Reasons for not being listed include: the websites have just been added to the web; the websites use no index, no follow rules; someone sent DMCA takedown requests to the search provider linking to the sites; the sites are dynamically generated; the sites have been delisted (Google will often silently delist sites and just recently reinstated co.cc results); etc. Examples: (I am not going to list any since this could potentially be used to identify me. To find unlisted YouTube videos you can search for "This video is unlisted. Only those with the link can see it." To search for results removed due to DMCA complaints, use a different search engine.) Restricted access content (i.e. only members can view certain pages). Includes public and private registration. Examples (public registration): facebook.com, gmail.com, dropbox.com Examples (private registration): what.cd, demonoid.me, waffles.fm
Deep Web Layer 2
(Many just refer to this as the deep web): Special access content (i.e. content that is only available through specialized anonymizing software). Includes anonymity networks and darknets (anonymous P2P). These networks work on top of the established Internet, and provide safe havens for speech and content that has been banned from the surface web. Software Examples: Tor, 12P, Freenet. Content Examples: Anonymous chat and imageboards, censored speech, child pornography, drugs, DRM removal software, pirated media, weapons, etc.

While anonymity networks can provide safe havens for secret information, if this information is publically available on said networks (such as pages pointed to in The Hidden Wiki), then the information will almost certainly leak to clearnet. However, the smaller volume of public information on current anonymity networks facilitates rapid discovery of privileged information. So, where is all the real secret information then? Below this line.

Private Networks:
These networks do not require Internet access. Examples: PANS (Personal Area Networks), LANs (Local Area Networks), WANS (Wide Area Networks) PANS are very short-range networks, connecting devices with technologies like bluetooth. LANS are short-range networks, connecting devices via routers or Ethernet cables. WANS are broad-range networks capable of spanning the globe. Large private networks (such as those used by corporations) operate over a backbone network (just as the internet does) to connect multiple LANs into WANS. the Internet. Private networks are impossible to access if you are out of their physical range, unless they also connect to Because private networks are inherently secure when properly configured, they are ideal for disseminating sensitive content.

It is highly likely that the vast majority of the information that affects you directly is stored on secure alternative and private networks. For example, on the WAN of an oil company you will be able to find information on the oil reserves left on the planet. On the alternative networks mentioned you will find classified government information. Sometimes this information is leaked to the deep web or clearnet (Wikileaks being a prime example), and sometimes this information is gathered independent of the network by third-parties, whose findings (global remaining oil reserves being one) are published on the surface web. No, there is no "Marianas Web" and if you ask about it in Onionland you will be trolled -- likely by everyone. However, if you had to ask that question, you should probably reconsider whether you want to use hidden services, for obvious reasons. If you think the program is TOR, you are not ready to use Tor, because you have not done your research. This guide is by no means meant to be conclusive (hence "Primer" in the title) and you should do your own research before joining us. Ignore all infographics discussing the deep web prior to this one, as they are inaccurate. (Created January 2012.)
3.Dark Web
5% of total internet content Sites that exist within the deep web Can only be accessed with a Tor browser Used for both legal and illegal purposes.Political protest drug trafficking and other illegal activities.The dark web is only accessible using a special browser like Tor (The Onion Router) or 12P. It is the underbelly of the internet and home to stolen information, illegal goods, and a myriad of criminal forums and shady activity.Sites with Illegal information • Drug trafficking sites Terrorist, Pornography, Pedophilia sites Friend-to-friend or peer-to-peer networks a •TOR encrypted sites - Freenet, 12P, and Riffle Bitcoin services such as 'Tumblers'.The 'DARK WEB' is the encrypted network that exists between TOR Servers and there clients.
