I think most of the time, it doesn't really make sense to talk about all the .onion sites as a whole, so I'm not sure that a term is needed to describe that. There isn't really a network of all those sites, but many unrelated sites that just happen to be using the same tool (the Tor network) and have nothing else in common. -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
