THE DEEP WEB

Video Posted on May 21, 2014

The Deep web refers to the content that can’t be accessed by regular search engines such as Google or Bing. Most of the Web’s information is buried far down on dynamically generated sites, and standard search engines do not find it. Traditional search engines cannot “see” or retrieve content in the deep Web—those pages do not exist until they are created dynamically as the result of a specific search. As of 2001, the deep Web was several orders of magnitude larger than the surface Web. In order to access the Deep Web, users need to use a dedicated software. Tor (The Onion Router) is the most commonly used, but there are alternatives such as I2P & Freenet . The video shows some of the most disturbing aspects of the deep web.
