RECLAIM YOUR DIGITAL GOLD


          Since it was made available to the general public for
          the first time in the 1990s, the Internet has undergone a
          variety of transformations, one of the most contentious
          of which is the expansion of what is known as the “dark
          web.”

          The dark web may worry some adults, especially since
          media reports frequently associate it with risky or illegal
          online activity. The dark web does have some positive
          aspects, though; because,as with everything else online,
          issues are more often brought on by how people use
          technology than by the technology itself. To assist you
          in gaining a deeper comprehension of the dark web, the
          following is a comparison of threedistinct kinds of webs:



          OPEN WEB


          This refers to the part of the Internet that is accessible
          to the general public and can be accessed by using a
          search engine such as Google or Bing. The majority of
          people use this part of the Internet on a daily basis.



          DEEP WEB


          This is the portion of the Internet that is typically
          concealed from the view of the general public. It is not
          possible to access it through typical search engines;
          rather, it can be reached through other, less well-known,
          methods.
          Thevast majority of what is referredto as the “deepweb”
          consists of databases that can be accessed in a safe
          manner via the “open web.” Examples of such databases
