You need a Tor client for that. Google it.

Dare I ask what you're looking for on the Dark Web? Wait... I probably don't want to know.

Once you get the Tor browser you will then want to Google for Tor search engines. Use a good Tor search engine to find all kinds of crap. But I highly, HIGHLY recommend you don't ever buy guns, drugs fake passports and IDs. I've read that fake passports are extremely hard to make. The only good fake passport is a real passport in your name. Fake IDs though might be beneficial for opening an anonymous bank account or getting into clubs if you're under 21 and all that lot. Besides all this crap there's child porn on there and other weird shit.

Be advised Tor is not full proof. And you can't trust the exit node. The FBI has shut down many Tor websites as well and they have their fingers in the Tor network. I imagine so does the NSA and probably the CIA and God knows who else.

When I use Tor I use a VPN with a double hop. That way the traffic is encrypted end to end through the Tor network so not even the exit node sees or knows what I'm doing. My VPN is based in Romania as well so that makes it hard to grab logs.

Also note. Tons of spammers use Tor. So if you try to browse this site or others you may in fact get blocked depending on if that particular exit node IP is blacklisted.

Tidbit of the day: It was the U.S. Navy that invited onion routing which inspired what Tor is today.

Install Tor, use at least one VPN, be very careful. I would also suggest you only use it on a network with IPS/IDS in place. Bottom line, when dealing with the dark net its impossible to be too careful.

Full disclosure. I don't surf the dark web all that often. Nor do I have a website on the dark web.

I went to the dark web once, to buy a Russian mail order bride. I ended up with an illegal 45 year old Mexican lady with 6 kids. I suspect one of the kids was her baby daddy though. She wouldn't touch me until I married her. When I did all I ended up with was my wallet missing off my dresser and my daughter knocked up.

Lots of different dark waves.

Tor is probably the easiest. You need to find .onion sites, there are some on Google then some sites will lead you to others. Depending how deep you go you can find interesting stuff. It's just kinda neat to think that it's a whole other "dimension" if you will.

There's a dark net called Hyperboria, it's more involved to setup, but essentially it's a mesh based IPv6 network. The cool thing about it is that once you set it up it's really like a normal network, you can setup any kind of server you want on it. I never actually played with it though.
