No problem Meemur, I'm the same way. I use the internet to come here, Facebook (I'm a member of a group on their that is centered on the same thing as here and family and friends talk about politics, prepping, ect...), browse for prep items and doing research.
What attracted me to look into the deepweb was the talk that it as an ungoverned part of cyberspace that could be used in the event of mass DNS/search engine takedown by the US government.
As well as Tor, which provides encryption for the data that passes over it's nods. This enables the use of applications like TorChat, OrbWeb, ect... Tor even has application for Android devices to help keep you anonymous via mobile.
After my visits to the deepweb, I decided it wasn't something that could be use, maybe eventually if something prohibited access to the "Clearnet".
It's rare but I visit 4chan on occasion they have a section called /tech/ that has more in formation in technology than any site I've ever seen. You can post a problem with a device and near instantly someone posts a reply with some advice or a way to fix it.
I have a Regency CR-142 CB transreceiver I got some greats tips for, but I did get some great tips here as well.
Same can be said for 420chan, I was advised by someone to check out their Academic boards section which has sections on Programming/Coding, Technology, Math & Science, Botany, Medicine & Health, Weapons, ect...
Both 4chan and 420chan have Prepping, Conspiracy Theory and Post-Apocalypse boards. Just stay away from /b/, /s/ and all the other boards if you visit 4chan or 420chan and you'll most likely never run into anything sickening or scaring.
