How big is Tor's Dark Net?

Study: 30,000 hidden services make up ~1% of network traffic

Not exactly the 80% the DoJ said, but we knew that going in.

The newly launched Tor search engine called Onion.city—probably the finest Tor search engine in existence—is indexing about 350,000 pages, and it's only been around for less than a week.

I never heard of that search engine before - and it sounds pretty nice.

so big.


[1 Points] throwaway:

Since a message to a hidden service takes six random hops, that's probably about 0.15% of other traffic.
