> The dark web is believed to be heavily monitored by intelligence and law enforcement agencies who often subvertly operate exit nodes in an attempt to trace the traffic back to its origin. Everyone says this, never quite realizing that hidden services (the .onion links on TOR) don't rely on exit nodes, and therefore wouldn't be subverted by such measures. They also say that 8chan users are revealing their IP addresses. First, if 8chan is gone from the clearnet, this means they're posting to a .onion domain, right? The websites are a bit unclear on this, but Wikipedia seems to imply that 8chan is no longer available on clearnet since August. So how are they divulging their IP addresses?
