    prolly have to find some discord groups/telegram groups. My best guess is head to the darknet for links, ifykyk. If anyone is stupid enough to post links on the clearnet, they almost deserve to be targeted by LE.

    (then again, imo posting on discord is stupid, but obviously effective in terms of rapid transmission)

      Um, isn’t discord and telegram technically part of the dark net? I always thought the dark net was just direct communication lines and direct links to self-hosted sites/data from individuals.

        I think it’s the deepweb that is unindexed and privately-accessible communications. Mentally I reserve the darkweb for complete obfuscation of identity, e.g. Tor.

        from what I know, there’s the term deepnet or deep web, that includes unindexed websites like databases and whatnot for facebook, telegram , etc. . . . And then there is the term darknet, which refers to websites that don’t use ordinary protocols, like tor or i2p.

        Call it pedantic, but I do think it makes sense to distinguish the two
