TOR’s onion services. Someone should clone it and publish to the the Safe Network. Anyone can be the next DPR.

But isn’t an onion service just a server only accessible over TOR? What I’m asking is: where was the server? Who was physically hosting the website (either knowingly or unknowingly)?

Yes.

It could have been hosted anywhere. TOR isn’t a hosting service but a means to access them.
