As more and more crime moves to the web, TOR grows due to its anonymous nature, a study by the researchers at King’s College London found that 57% of all sites on the darknet are designed for criminal activities which includes drugs, fraud and porn.

We expected something along these lines,” said Thomas Rid, professor of Security Studies at King’s College London and co-author of the research. “Previous studies have established that it’s a pretty nasty place.”

They found 5,205 live websites, and managed to classify the content of 2,723 of those.

After categorizing the material, Rid and Moore found 1,547 of the websites consisted of illicit and illegal content.
