> At best they took down 30% of hidden web services with published addresses at aggregator sites like Hidden Wiki

30% is wrong, but there are other ways these metrics [0] are extrapolated [1]. You can see a dip in that first chart, didn't check dates to see if related.

Don't confuse, and don't mix .onion domains or hidden services with web-sites running on a hidden service. If a hidden service exist, it don't have to be a website!

Here is your Data about .onion websites: https://www.reddit.com/r/onions/comments/9yfwfb/my_personal_...

About 7000 .onion sites worked before, about 3100 after...
