Unless I'm missing something, 4chan and 8chan are both available on the clearweb still - it seems like the article is implying that they're both not anymore? Looks like an advertisement for WebHost more than investigative journalism.

I made the same mistake in a now-deleted comment. Read further, those two are not what the article is talking about. Title should be changed, article is called "Imageboards: Monitoring the Hotbeds of Extremism and Radicalism".

  From what I can tell, its Tor address is down as well.

8chan is dead. Jim could barely keep the site going when it was up. Gonna miss it. /pol/ on 8ch was pretty gross, but /christianity/ and a few of the other smaller boards had great communities. I especially don't know where to find a Christian imageboard anymore. There are Christian threads on 4/pol/ every once in a while, but those guys are mostly looking for an alternative way to express their traditionalist sentiments rather than actually follow Christ. Anyhow, I hope the losers that continually bitch about 4chan and 8chan understand what they're ruining. It's a lot more than just /pol/.

8ch is not available in the clear web, from well-known reasons ... 4Chan.org is still available there. The shift of 8ch to TOR and another type of networks started some time ago as a result of the need to be "free from censorship" , I personally think that this type of chase will never end as there is a basic contradiction between the type of topics discussed there and the need of goverments to protect and monitor.
