I think Tor Browser Bundle. This looks to be a dark-web page, since the TLD is .onion.

Can we at least not call it "dark-web" on HN? I get that media morons are trying to come up with a way to make tor sound more scary, but that's a meaningless term that IMO we should not use here.

I actually wasn't sure what a better term was. Tor site? Onion site? Is "dark web" ambiguous; can it refer to other technologies?

"onion site" or "onion service" is probably preferred, "a site on the tor network" would also probably work.

Can we still wear black hoodies and ski masks when we're using TOR? I already bought my wardrobe for the fall season.
