A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I've always wondered what it would be like, but I've also heard so many creepy stories about it I just don't want someone hacking my bank because I'm an idiot. So I stay away from it. I wish I was more tech savy.
Are you confusing Tor and something like deep/dark web? Because Tor itself is just a webbrowser, it's basically a Firefox with some modifications for stricter privacy.
Possibly, I know Tor is a browser but because it can be used to access deep/dark web I don't trust myself with it. 100% out of acknowledged ignorance yes
As long as you stay off of any .onion sites, there won't be any difference w.r.t. dark/deep web access. If a domain doesn't end in .onion, then it can be accessed with a regular web browser anyway.
