How does the internet work? What are the World Wide Web, the Deep Web, and the Dark Web? How do you deal with the Dark Web? What should you be aware of when surfing there?
Could someone explain all this clearly?

Hello, today for the first time I saw a red heart instead of a green one on my favorite songs on Spotify (see picture). What does it mean? I've never seen it before and it's only in the song
I got a new repeater today, which is better than my old one. It actually works great! I have Ethernet on my PC, and everything works fine there, too. However, sometimes my PC freezes for a second while gaming! I play Fortnite, and it makes a big difference there. Can anyone help me? I've already…
On insta e.g. I mean, that doesn't solve the actual problem (keyword: self-esteem)
What is more popular
You live in a settlement and are connected to your immediate neighborhood. You’re a network. You speak a common language and have agreed rules for exchange.
There are other settlements that are more or less far from your settlement. These are also a network for themselves.
These networks are called local networks (LAN, Local Area Network).
Now your settlement has been connected to another settlement. You’re going to talk to each other now and exchange yourself. Your network has increased and a local network has become a wider area network (WAN, Wide Area Network).
The word or Prefix “Inter” comes from the Latin and accordingly means “between” or “mitten”, such as the Inter at International, Intercontinental, Interdisciplinary. Here you will notice: It is about the interplay of several things.
An Internet is therefore a combination of several “nets”, which is the abbreviation for network. You could also say internetwork.
Your previous settlement, developed by LAN and WAN, has now become the Internet. There are certain things that you share or exchange. This part belongs to the Internet or WAN. You want to keep certain things for yourself or not make publicly accessible. This part still forms the LAN part.
The more settlements join with exchange formats and contents of your WAN, the greater the Internet becomes.
But now there are some things or information you want to make from your settlement accessible only to those who are silly. It should be accessible from a distance, but not for all and only under certain conditions. One thus requires a “deeper” access, such as several keys to tresors, a secret path in the substructure, which is known only in the select circle, etc. This forms the deep web.
Then there are content you want to share in an anonymous round. All participants should dress up and mask. No name, origin or mind should be known. You all have to speak the same language and must not use any other. They should also not be on site, but only pass on the content, and only those who fulfil the same conditions. Only the person who gives you the content at the end of the chain is forced to know your origin, otherwise he can’t assign it.
This then analogously forms the anonymization network (Darkweb). What is a good thing in itself, like many others in life, is unfortunately also abused for a lot of bad things.
The Internet is decentralized and a collection of networks, connection nodes and terminals. I’m just trying to explain free-hand construction and functioning of the Internet, it can lead to inaccuracies and errors. If you really want to know about a search engine of your choice, you can find dozens of explanations in text, image, video and audio format.
A terminal can provide a service (service) or use services (client).
There are local networks (LAN/WLAN) and different levels of larger networks, which are usually divided into smaller networks. If a network is connected to the Internet, then there is a line from your network to a node connected to other networks and nodes.
At the boundary of each network is a router which manages the communication between the networks and carries out the so-called “outing”. The communication consists of data packets which are similar to a letter, there is an address for the recipient and a sender address and a content that is packed in. When routing, it is now determined whether the recipient of the packet is in the respective network or which route is the fastest to the target network.
For this purpose, routers and especially network nodes (large routers) exchange about which networks are connected to them and how long the transmission lasted. There are various protocols that regulate the traffic in the networks, such as TCP, FTP, SMTP Etc. The details about this would go too deep
The address is always an IP address, but we do not call most websites via an IP address but via a URL. Your computer has a list of URLs and associated IP addresses internally. This list arises and grows with time. If a URL is unknown, special servers come into play: DNS server. Some kind of phone book or information** (if you still say*) . DNS servers have a large list of IP and URL combinations.
There are different stages of DNS servers, usually using a DNS server of the network provider zB Telekom as standard. However, can also enter other public DNS servers. The different stages are a kind of hierarchy. The most important DNS servers are the so-called backbone server. These have a list of many important DNS servers. There are DNS servers for each URL ending, i.e. for “.de”. If a DNS server is not aware of the address, it asks at the higher level and experiences either the address or the address of the responsible DNS server and returns it.
The different parts of a URL are to identify the correct service you call, e.g. the corresponding sub-web page or file.
That’s what the basics should cover.
The so-called Deep Web is part of the Internet, as is the so-called Darknet. The deepth web usually refers to the mass of websites and servers that are not publicly listed. These can be ua company networks or databases, but also subnetworks that can only be accessed via special protocols and servers. Such a subnetwork is the so-called darknet. The term is already unambiguous as there are several such networks. The TOR or ONION network is usually meant by now.
This includes a network of websites and services with a .onion address that can only be reached and displayed via the browser (a variation of Firefox). This network is strongly focused on obscuring data traffic via special servers that do not run a protocol and through the line all traffic via multiple servers, each of which only knows the last sender and the next recipient but not the original recipient and sender.
What do you need to consider when you move on the network? Don’t trust any link, don’t download anything and don’t pay anything unless you’re sure it’s safe. There are illegal content that can be found in this network. In most cases, however, one does not stumble on it by chance.
Oh, God, I’m getting old. What are modern equivalents to the phone book?!)
** The information was (is?) a service that you can call by phone to find a phone number you are looking for.
“How does the Internet work?”
The Internet is a huge network that consists of many subnetworks. When your device is connected to the Internet, it becomes part of this network. Your request for a website is forwarded to Server. He then searches the DNS server and then IP address will be sent to you. Your device then calls it and copys the content of the page to your device.
“What is World Wide Web, Deep Web and Dark Net?”
These are all such networks. They are called GAN (Global Are- Network. These are all networks where you can find things. Soe have different purposes and different meanings.
“How do you deal with Darknet?”
You use it.
“Who cares when you surf?”
Definitely don’t make illegal things! Although the Darknet is anonymous, you can still be remedied in a complicated way.
Otherwise, it depends on what you want to do.
I only use WWW, so I can’t tell you anything else about what it looks like!
For the darknet you need the TOR browser and if you do everything right you can surf almost completely anonymously. You will also find many illegal sites with weapons, drugs, certain services such as renting a hacker or killing someone(no fun). In principle, it is legal to be on such websites as long as you don’t buy anything.
the www is the whole of the websites that are online. So all that can be called up via www in a web browser
