How to access the Dark Web

Before starting to explore this hidden world, we must mention that in this article we do not include the links to all the Dark Web sites mentioned below since some of them change their address constantly to avoid being shut down.

To access the Dark Web it is necessary that you use special search engines. The safest and the best developed so far is Tor (The Onion Router).

Sci-Hub

This site proclaims the liberation of scientific knowledge for all. Its database contains the fabulous amount of 70 million documents and scientific research.

This means that in Sci-Hub you can find 99% of the academic articles that exist in the world.

Sci-Hub promotes the right that everybody should have to access scientific knowledge regardless of their social status, ethnic origin, and place of birth.

Sci-Hub is the first website in the world that provides massive and public access to the latest discoveries and scientific results that would not be possible to be consulted under the copyright laws that limit its dissemination.

For Sci-Hub, access to scientific information should not be blocked by copyright laws since it limits the development of knowledge and makes a profit of something that belongs to humanity.

Searches in Sci-Hub platform are done by writing the DOI (string of letters and numbers used to identify permanently an article or document in the web) or the URL of a specific article. If the document is locked Sci-Hub will unlock it after asking to complete a captcha.

As expected, the Sci-Hub page is under constant attack and regularly changes its location on the Deep Web. To know the current location of the site, we suggest following its official Twitter account https://twitter.com/sci_hub?lang=en
