Introduction

Deep Web, Dark Internet and Darknet represent three concepts that might seem similar and that are sometimes used as synonimous. Really, these three concepts represent three very different worlds. Hearing terms like these, they may seem fascinating, perhaps because are subjects that does not usually get talk about on the Web. More in deep, when a user surfs the Web, he thinks that all the information available all over the world are also available on it.

In the following sections, these three concepts will be explained, in a way in which the differences between them can be clear.
