HOW RISKY IS IT TO BROWSE THE DARK
WEB?

When you are careless about what content you access
on the dark web, you put yourself in jeopardy. You run
the risk of unwittingly disclosing personalinformation to
cybercriminals and may even do so unintentionally. You
might also find yourself involvedin illegal activity without
even being aware of it. Because there is such a high
volume of illegal activity and the possibility that you will
find content that is extremely upsetting, there is also the
risk of suffering mental trauma. If you decide to venture
into the dark web, you should keep these concerns in
mind, particularly if you are not technically savvy.

The dark web is frequently associated with illegal or
dangerous online activity. Tor is software that provides
anonymity and is accessible via a search engine. It
enables users to browse the open and dark webs
anonymously, without allowing anyone to identify or
monitor their activity. Tor’s anonymity allowed users to
surf the dark web completely anonymously and access
websites that were previously considered to be part of
the “dark web.”

Users should still exercise caution and take appropriate
safety precautions when navigating the dark web. The
dark web is frequently used for illegal activities such as
illegal drugs, weapons, passwords, and stolen identities.
In recent years, the anonymity of the dark web has
contributed to cybersecurity threats and data breaches.
