Hi @teach-me
Thanks for another interesting post. I have used the dark web a few times to find out certain information that people do not feel comfortable sharing publically. More often though, I do use Tor to protect my privacy as you can re-route any non-dark web through Tor to give you extra anonymity.
The more authoritarian a government is then the more they fear privacy and anonymity. That is why I like Tor, it gives you a way to maintain your freedom.
Tor is same almost like a mozilla, just a few different scripts. Examples such as IP, SE, etc.
