Do not simply remove services that appear to be offline from the above list! Services can go down temporarily, so we keep track of when they do and maintain a list of dead hidden services.
- In addition to an onion simply being gone (Tor cannot resolve the onion), sites that display 404 (and use a known onion/URL based hosting service) are the only other thing that is considered truly DOWN.
Presumably the account is gone.
- If a service has been down for a while, tag it with ‘ – DOWN YYYY-MM-DD’ (your guess as to when it went down).
- If a tagged service on the above list of live hidden services has come back up, remove the DOWN tag.
- If a tagged service is still down after a month, please move it (along with the DOWN tag) to the list of dead hidden services.
- The general idea of the remaining four service states below is that, if the Hidden Service Descriptor is available, and something is responding behind it… the service is considered up, and we track that fact on the Main Page. If any of these subsequently go offline, append
the DOWN tag and handle as above.
- Hello world’s / statements, minimal sites, services with low user activity, etc (while boring)… are listed as usual.
- Broken services are those that display 404 (and do not use a known hosting service), PHP or other errors (or they fail silently)… any of which prevent the use of the service as intended. They also include blank pages, empty dirs and neglected status notes. Presumably the operator is in limbo. Broken services are tagged with ‘ (reason) –
Broken YYYY-MM-DD’ (your guess as to when it went broken)
- Services that automatically redirect to another service (such as by HTTP protocol or script), have their redirection destinations noted in their descriptions. These are tagged with ‘ – Redir YYYY-MM-DD’ (your
guess as to when it went redir)
- Sites that are formally closed via announcement are tagged with ‘ – Closed YYYY-MM-DD’ (your guess as to when it went closed.
New v3 Hidden Services
In late 2021 the old v2 (Short) .onion domains will stop working because it will be removed from the Tor project. So from now on, The Hidden Wiki will only list v3 .onion domains (Long).
If you are wondering why this change was made, it has to do with the better security of the longer v3 domains.
The old v2 domains just did not have enough cryptographic strength.
All you have to do is update your Tor browser to a recent version if you want to keep browsing hidden sites.
To make the switch to the new type of domains as smooth as possible, please bookmark and share with others a good v3 .onion link list like the Hidden Wiki.
