I think that to understand why the 𝔻𝕖𝕖𝕡 𝕎𝕖𝕓 (𝔻𝕒𝕣𝕜𝕟𝕖𝕥) was invented there is no better start than 𝓟𝓪𝓻𝓪𝔃𝓲𝓽𝓮.
As you know, the Internet was born in the 90s and then in 1994 the first search engines began to develop.
In the 90s and early years of the new millennium, file hosting sites began to be developed.
They range from harmless content to other extremes.
When censorship arrives on search engines, all content of dubious morality is canceled but it was too late because many of these files had already been downloaded from the web.
Initially they end up on P2P software (Kazaa, eMule, etc), then when TOR creates its network (onion) they are loaded on the Dark Web.
In particular on the ParaZite website.
Theoretically TOR network was created to combat censorship.
ParaZite often went down and changed links several times, the creators of one of the most extreme sites of the Dark Web have never been identified.
It was a repository of links and files.
On this site you could find everything: methods to synthesize artificial drugs, techniques to carry out murders, ways to commit suicide or to become a terrorist.
There were also emails stolen from politicians, ways to create virus (botnet), techniques to steal, break homes, lure children and other content of absolute violence.
In addition to guides and documents, the site also featured videos.
All freely downloadable.
ParaZite has nothing to do with black markets or forums, it is just a container of files (a bit like Archive.org).
The site disappears from time to time and then comes back online by changing links.
