Tor Browser Alternative Services


I2P is a much smaller network, so not as many people use it. Because of this, there are fewer sites to look at on I2P than on Tor. However, I2P is designed to be more secure than TOR and it's also easier to use.

3. FreeNet - Freedom Network

FreeNet is a free, decentralized and secure internet. It uses the same technology as Tor and I2P, but it is not as popular.

FreeNet does not use onion routing to protect your identity. The network does not hide your IP address from others or from ISPs (Internet Service Providers). This means that if you visit websites on FreeNet without encryption, your ISP can see what sites you are visiting.

4. Subgraph OS

Subgraph OS is a Linux distro that claims to be "the most secure operating system available." It's based on Debian and designed for privacy, security and anonymity. Subgraph uses Tor by default (which helps protect your identity online), as well as I2P (which routes internet traffic through an anonymizing network) and other security-focused applications. The distro also comes with a number of built in security features aimed at protecting users from intrusions.

Subgraph can run on several different architectures including x86_64 (64-bit) systems such as Intel/AMD processors; armv7l (32-bit ARM architecture); ppc64le (64-bit PowerPC e500v2 architecture used by some Apple devices); mips64el (32-bit MIPS architecture).

5. Whonix

Whonix is a linux distro that runs Tor and a virtual machine. It uses the Tor network to protect your privacy, and can be used with Qubes OS, which is an operating system that provides security by isolation.

Whonix requires VirtualBox, KVM and Linux (Debian-based) host operating systems.

You can browse the dark web with the tor browser, but to be truly secure, you should be careful what you do there.

The dark web is not the same as the deep web. The deep web refers to content that isn’t accessible through a normal search engine like Google or Bing, while the dark web refers to websites that host content you can only access with special software like Tor.

The dark web sites is not just one website—it's a collection of sites that aren't indexed by Google. They're typically used for buying and selling illegal goods online (weapons, drugs), but they also include legitimate services like anonymized messaging platforms, chat rooms and more.

To access these sites with your browser, you'll need a special program called Tor Browser. This browser allows users to browse anonymously while hiding their IP address from anyone who might be monitoring their activity online (like their employer or school). You can use dark web search engines to access onion sites.
