DarkDarkGo

DarkDarkGo is a scalable search engine for the dark web. The goal of the project is to build a simple, robust search engine from scratch that can search through the dark web content.

Project Status

It is a work in progress. The last time we tested (December 2017), the dark web did not give us enough meaningful results to serve a query. However, each component was working and tested separately. Hence, this project can be used as a foundation to add more interesting features and build a more complex product.
