New form of hidden service domains and other news

 V3 concealed expert services

With a lot of people today asking yourself why all the quick v2 concealed service domain names stopped working, we will consider to make clear this in this shorter but thorough posting.

So what does an .onion name do?

It will allow you join to a concealed web-site on the Tor network. But in order for that to function, the concealed website has to authenticate ownership of the concealed sites domain to the Tor network.

Now the problem with the short area names was, that the cryptographic energy of the fundamental math behind them was not solid enough.

The extended area names have a more complex cryptography guiding them and are thus far more safe and more challenging to spoof.

The technological know-how of the Tor community also acquired upgraded and servers operating the v3 domains have a far better DDOS safety and other benefits.

The Tor challenge seems to continue on to strengthen the hidden web-site network, right after several years of not carrying out substantially to assist admins of concealed services to mitigate DDOS attacks or deanonymization attempts.

We switched to a new server yet again

As you may have seen, in the recent weeks the website of the Hidden Wiki was not as secure as it made use of to be.

We have mitigated this and moved the website to a new server with much more methods and faster community.

We hope the downtime we experienced did not induce also significantly difficulties for anyone.

And we will make absolutely sure that in the potential we retain the website as stable as it was in the previous.

The dim website is continuously switching, and with it the Hidden Wiki.

We therefore resolved to drop the previous v2 .onion web-sites from the key website page.

Because the previous Tor browser update, the aged v2 sites are no for a longer period supported and will end operating.

So it would make no perception to record them any longer.

We will as a substitute insert a lot more new hidden products and services in the long term, so look at back from time to time.
