The Darkest Corners of the Internet
263 sats \ 11 comments \ @drbelarvardan 7h ideasfromtheedge
I hope this is the right territory to ask this.
For a while now I have heard politicians and news anchors use the phrase "darkest corner/corners of the internet".
What and where is the darkest corners of the internet?
What are they refereeing too? and what in reality could be "the darkest corner/corners of the internet"?
Is it the "dark web", some dot onion domain, eep sites, 4chan, 8chan etc.
How can someone access the "darkest corner/corners of the internet"?
Looking for both serious and non serious answers.

The "darkest corners of the internet" typically refer to areas of the web that are hidden, secretive, or host illegal, unethical, or disturbing content. Users often find these areas within the Dark Web, which is a part of the internet that standard search engines do not index and requires special software like Tor (The Onion Router) to access.

The darkest corner of the internet is anywhere a conservative opinion is held.
Stacker News probably qualifies

It’s amazing how Reddit mods are worse than Stanford prison guards and they don’t try to hide their hatred of conservatives and Trump
I guess it started in 2012 or earlier. Accelerated in 2016 and 2017 and 2020 and post January 6, 2021. Each new wave represents more censorship and partisan hacks

I remember the mood changed and that started in 2008ish before the Tea Party.

The darkest corner of the web? Oh, that’s where people still debate pineapple on pizza like it’s a Supreme Court case, and the biggest crime is someone trying to justify why they “reply-all” to a 50-person office email thread. It’s where grandma’s chain emails about a Nigerian prince mix with endless CAPTCHA puzzles, and people willingly read through the entire “terms and conditions.” Venture deeper, and you might just stumble upon the last active Internet Explorer page… trying to load since 2003. Warning: it’s also where all your passwords go when you forget them!

It’s the parts and places on the internet where things are said and done that are explosive and inflammatory… and no one ever hears about it or even knows about it… until they do.
