Having the internet at home in the late 90's/early 00's was magical. As a child you felt like you had a key to a mystical city that not a lot of people had. Websites were slow, flash animations ruled supreme, basic HTML was the norm. I still remember going on KZbin in 2005 and being blown away by how smoothly and quickly I could watch a video online with it's player, when only a few years beforehand I waited 15-30 minutes to able to watch a 45 second video in Quicktime without it stopping. As time on goes on the internet resonates with and accommodates more people of all ages and it's lost that magic. It's in your pocket now and it's taken for granted.

You should do an entire video on the deep web.

[@4289job]

Naomi Nekomimi TL;DW:Deep web is everything not indexed. Ex: I can visit my own facebook page but I have it covered so it won't show up in google. If you type it in facebook you can acces the page but the content will stay hidden until you give acces. This is the deep web for the most part, just databases with accounts that won't get indexed. You also have another part of the deep web; often called the dark web. This are .onion sites and mostly you can acces them with something like TOR client. Here are a lot of things, drug markets being popular but also REALLY BIG libraries with almost all movies, series and music. Way more than tpb, this things are "easily" accesed. You can find them on a index site that you find on ex. chrome. You will copy the link and just paste it in TOR. If you go further, you start to get CP, hitmen, terrorist attacks. These sites are a bit harder to come by and you WILL need a vpn or a proxy. These sites are more tricky to find and if you don't know what you are doing it is not advised to do it.

[@naominekomimi]

4289job Interesting. So there is a way to access the library of stuff without getting any of the not safe for life stuff? That would be interesting to figure out, as long as it wouldn't be pissing off any law enforcement (at least no more than usual torrenting does).

[@4289job]

Well there is ofc a lot of porn there but that is no different than the normal piratebay.

[@4289job]

But if you don't exactly know what you're doing it is not recommended to download TOR and just browse the dark net.

[@ExperienceLOS7713]

I think text based information (e.g., books) requires greater stimulation of the brain's creative faculties since it requires the mind to imagine all the sensory information instead of having it provided directly as images or sounds. Although the internet contains text based information, it is largely driven by multimedia that is more directly stimulating to the senses, thus making the absorption of information a more passive act since it does not require imagination. Furthermore, the "linearity" or "rigidity" of books requires a sense of discipline, as we have to coerce our ever shortening attention spans into maintaining focus on a particular subject in order to gain depth of knowledge, not breadth.

[@Korayyoss]

amazed to see that people still watch this kind of videos even after (almost) 10 years passed.

[@SloppyCat79]

The comment on coherency was delivered perfectly.

[@MelvinArthurMurray]

Vsuace must spend a lot of time searching this stuff up and he also works hard to make a great video and teach us something, thats what i admire about micheal

[@ghostofgeek]

This channel should be the most subscribed on KZbin.

[@robertcanty9756]

Well, there are other channels that are KZbin made that are very generic. Music, Gaming, and Sports are the Top3 respectively. The highest user-made channel is PewDiePie, which actually tops KZbin Spotlight, Movies, Pop Music, and TV Shows.

most of the new unheard of questions google gets was done by gavin free.

[@barduk4]

thank goodness someone who advocates for the internet... getting tired of people whining and complaining and saying the internet is ruining our generation

[@Crawfishness]

It should still be taken in a bit of moderation.

[@Dinco422]

Crawfishness True, take note young ones.

[@Diamante777]

Crawfishness Why? Why cant the internet just be an ocean instead of a controlled zoo. Leave it to a brony of course..

[@barduk4]

Francisco Arroyo any reason why "brony" implies a negative conotation?

[@damirahman]

***** Because he disagreed with him and then said something snarky, specifically aimed at the fact that he's a brony.

[@Enigmaticmuffin27]

good video, one of the best Vsauce to date

What's even funnier is that Mimas sounds like Memus.

[@ShotClanTxter]

Do a video on the deep web its truly fascinating and scary as hell at the same time

[@Hosorrow]

I don't think he will do it. The deep web isn't something to promote. Not because it's all bad... but because what 99% of people end up finding when they explore it is bad. This is because all of the pages widely known to index it, like the Hidden Wiki, almost exclusively lead you to illegal or immoral things like hard drugs, rape, fraud, and even assassination. Promoting such a thing and exposing a large amount of people to it is a bad idea. At least at the moment. We need a site better than the Hidden Wiki to index the Deep Web. One that doesn't promote bad stuff. The problem with this is... if something isn't already on the Web, then it's probably illegal. I mean, I'm hard pressed to think of very many things that I'd search for on the Deep Web that aren't illegal. Hence why I stopped using Tor and the Deep Web altogether.

[@DarkRaven118666]

Deep web isn't as interesting as you think. most of it is just private pages for companies and random stuff web developers make for personal use.

[@ghosthin3012]

A lot of traffic on the Deep Web included encrypted traffic for banks such as credit card authorization, companies intranet traffic to pass through Internet. The rest of the stuff are usually illegal and that's why they ain't index in the first place. When I say they are illegal, I am not talking about smoking pot or pirated movies/songs, I am talking about child porn, rape, murder, and many many other immoral things. Do we really need everyone to expose to that? I don't really see the point of it. There are enough fucked up stuff on the indexed Internet as it. The Deep Web stay out of the public for a very good reason.

[@TheFaisalano]

DarkRaven118666 Nah its definitely more than that. Surface levels of the dark web are definitely not all that interesting, but go deeper and you find scams and hacks, even deeper you find fraud, credit card accounts and numbers, even deeper and you get the real scary shit such as human trafficking, drugs, governmental leaked documents and contracted hitmen. I don't want to act as some kind of know it all web head but i'v seen, on a site, a man's life being put up for 2000$ in Hungary.

[@DarkRaven118666]

dark web != deep web

[@Sorenzo]

"Lo" is the best greeting, anyway.

[@thegamemaster2000]

i love how he spent 10 minutes to tell us that the INTERNET is your computer linked to other computers via ethernet cord or wifi, and the WEB is the browser based content you get when you open up that connection that your computer has. :D

[@HesterClapp]

This has to be one of the most on-topic VSauce videos

[@fulldeepshadowmmon]

Such a great video. Vsauce is by far and away my favorite channel on youtube. I love you Micheal

[@ROBLOXowns]

Didn't learn very much from this video. But then again I already knew quite a bit about the internet.

[@ShroudedWolf51]

***** I prefer "geek", but... Thanks n_n

[@wex4sex]

ShroudedWolf51 And I see that you also prefer to represent yourself in elite way to establish dominance, but you blame others when you're being bullied. P.S. I don't support bullying but I have major disrespect to people who try to show off by ridiculous statements.

[@dezent]

the internet is a series of tubes, i already knew that.

[@TheSwegBucket]

You're not supposed to "learn" from these videos, but rather philosophize.

[@LegendOfZub]

You must feel special.

The internet. The second greatest invention next to the wheel.

[@Tongue2Flagpole25]

Wheels are great, but roads are better.

[@MODEPIIC]

I'd say the internet is more important than the wheel, just think about. The internet will live FOREVER

[@danmcann94]

think about it: the internet wouldn't exist without the invention of wheels. all the technology and the mechanics behind it are possible due to the existence of wheels. I don't claim that the internet is less important than the wheel. we should just remind ourselves that the wheel is the ancestor of all inventions.

[@HanSDevX]

The wheel is a primitive invention that could've been thought up at any time.

[@clutch1141]

There has only ever been one invention, everything else is an adaptation of the one invention.

Great finishing metaphor and final sentences. Keep exploring. Keep surfing. There’s a difference between conscious research (surfing) and passive swipe-culture (I guess letting oneself go with the winds and waves).
