This blog provides an overview of the Darknet (Tor and I2P), explaining how hidden sites, forums, and marketplaces operate; it highlights legitimate uses (journalism, whistleblowing) alongside criminal activity (sale of stolen data, access to compromised servers), describes community behaviors and access restrictions, and outlines risks to individuals and organizations from data leaks and doxing, concluding with practical mitigations such as darknet monitoring services and use of password managers.
