    the darkweb is literally just the old internet, plus or minus some racism.

    It’s great fun.

        it depends on where you go.

        And where you go on the clear net.

        There’s tons of racism on the clear net, and theres tons of racism on the darknet.

        But there’s also shit like cookbooks on the darknet.

          Indeed there are cookbooks. Lots of cookbooks for absolutely anything anyone could ever cook, for any meaning of the word “cook”.

      I think that’s the whole point. But before, it was all just a simple Google search away, no SEO in sight. Being capable of surfing the web properly already was at the time THE test to get in, much like private forums often have some kind of interviewing process. It felt a little more nerdy, and well organized, as you actually had to be both things to contribute. As it always was.

        it’s so much more visceral, in the sense that it’s just fucking html 90% of the time. And it’s incredible.
