"s I have no doubt (currently) that it is all about illegal porn or illegal drugs and sinister scams." You have come to your conclusion based upon nothing more than feeling, because if you had done any searching at all you would understand the answer to your question. Everyone has heard the metaphor about leading a horse to water. In this case, it's more like the horse refuses to even be lead to the water but wants someone to go get a bucket of water and bring it to them. No one should or is gonna do it for you, especially since you have demonstrated a clearly exemplary amount of laziness in both effort and thought... tldr Tor sites != illegality tor != darknet/deep web (eg, the darknet/deep web is much broader than just tor...)

So you are saying that there is a Darknet, only that it is different from Tor network, which use is solely to maintain someone anonymous and all the benefits it brings? That contradicts the comment I replied to, that is why I framed my question that way. I assumed I should consider Tor Network and Darknet one and only (as it is the top voted comment on HN, it gave me the credibility credentials to trust it with no second thought).

To me, deep web means any website not indexed by major search engines... most of the deep web is accessible using a standard browser if you can find a link to it (many times, those links can be found by using the search engine of that website because most of their pages are not indexed for whatever reason)
