An arXiv paper on discovering skylines over hidden web databases whose search interfaces enforce a top-k output constraint. It examines how search interface controls affect discovery cost and develops algorithms for one-ended range, free range and point predicates, combined for mixed interfaces. Experiments over real-world online and offline databases are reported.
An arXiv paper on digging deeper into hidden web databases limited by the top-k output constraint. It presents the GetNext meta-algorithm, which retrieves the next ranked tuple through a restrictive interface without prior knowledge of the ranking function, and algorithms that generate and execute multiple reformulated queries. Theoretical analysis and experiments over synthetic and real-world databases are reported.
National Transportation Library record for research on discovering and cataloging hidden-web resources.
Ahmia is a search engine for services on the Tor network. It indexes hidden services, which require the Tor browser bundle to access, and states that abuse material is not allowed and is removed from the index. The project is developed as free and open source software, with a crawler, an index and a search website.
Show Hidden is a userscript page for adding browser features, interface tweaks, or automation to websites.
A community dedicated to the preservation of video game development media such as prototypes, hardware, source code and artwork, started in 2006. The website serves as a catalog for items collected and shared. It has archived over 1000 development builds for various video game systems.
A library support page explaining the invisible web, also called the deep web or hidden web. It states that search engines cover about 16% of the internet and advises against relying on them alone, especially for academic information. It lists content search engines cannot find, such as dynamically changing content, password protected resources and sites requiring registration, and suggests web directories and asking a librarian.
Always Active Window is a browser extension that spoofs the visible state of selected web pages. It modifies DOM visibility properties and blocks visibility change events so that pages and servers treat the page as active. It also keeps requestAnimationFrame running on hidden tabs. It is intended for pages that only provide content while visible.
Boolean Strings is a resource that lists 40 custom Google Programmable Search Engines, most of which are currently working, for discovery and sourcing purposes. The collection includes tools for finding hidden profiles, resumes, documents, and diversity-focused talent. The project also accepts requests for new custom search engines and has a related guide to programmable search engines scheduled for release.
A web tool that opens URLs through various archive and paywall bypass services to view content hidden behind paywalls by showing a cached version of the page. The site states it does not offer an illegal service and that responsibility for using the services lies with the user.
This arXiv paper proposes an end-to-end scalable architecture for early identification of new Tor sites and daily analysis of their content. It is built on an open source big data stack including Kubernetes, Kafka, Kubeflow and MinIO, discovering onion addresses across several sources, downloading HTML from Tor, deduplicating with MinHash LSH and categorizing with BERTopic modeling. In 93 days it identified 80,049 onion services and characterized 90% of them.
DJ Phonetic is a free online tool for creating beats using the percussive sounds hidden in human speech. It also supports beatboxing with historical speech sourced from the Library of Congress, and includes options to toggle International Phonetic Alphabet text and phone views.
Just the Browser provides configuration files, documentation and installation scripts that remove AI features, telemetry data reporting, sponsored content and product integrations from desktop web browsers, using hidden settings intended for organizations. It includes manual guides for Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox and Brave, and the project is open-source on GitHub.
(Non-)Human is an art installation by Yuguang Zhang that explores the semi-human, semi-object territory. It conjures the hidden human-ness in objects and imagines a speculative world where a human exists in non-human forms. The initial piece is a bedsheet that tweaks and bends in the form of its owner. It uses tools including Arduino, webcam, PoseNet, Node.js, and a custom GAN.
CertKit Certificate Search is a tool that searches TLS certificate transparency logs to locate publicly issued certificates. It can identify new subdomains, certificate renewals, and suspicious activity, supporting security monitoring, domain research, and uncovering hidden infrastructure.
A catalog of dark pattern examples sorted by category, with explanations of tactics such as bait and switch, confirmshaming, cookie walls, disguised ads, fake scarcity, hidden costs, misdirection and nagging. Entries include named companies and cases.
Directory Lister is a PHP web directory lister. Its documentation covers changes, features, file search and file hashes. The release notes mention fixes to compressed ZIP downloads, configuration examples and hidden file handling, plus security fixes for path checks and direct-linked content.
HoneyBot is a honeypot-style security bot for Discord. It uses a hidden lure channel and, when enabled via /setup, real-time scanning of accessible channels to detect and automatically act on spam, scam links, selfbots and compromised accounts. The bot is in beta and states that false positives and missed detections may occur.
Anonymous network software for private peer-to-peer services and hidden web applications.
NN Visual is an interactive web-based neural network visualizer. It lets users configure hidden layers, select datasets such as auto_mpg, iris, xor, or mnist, and train a network while observing forward and backpropagation step by step. The tool displays training loss, mean absolute error, weight distributions, and node activation brightness. Written explanations accompany the visualizations to teach concepts like gradient descent, weights, biases, and activation functions without requiring code.
SimpleLogin is an open source email aliasing service based in Switzerland. Users give an alias instead of their real address, and emails sent to the alias are forwarded to the inbox. Replies can be sent from the alias, keeping the real address hidden. Aliases can be managed on the website, browser extensions or Android.
