deep web
Beyond search results
The deep web is the portion of the internet not indexed by standard search engines—content behind logins, paywalls, or private databases.
Your email inbox, medical records, and subscription services all live on the deep web.
Often confused with the dark web, which is a small subset requiring special software to access and associated with illicit activity.
