https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_web

The dark web is the World Wide Web content that exists on darknets: overlay networks that use the Internet but require specific software, configurations, or authorization to access

Anything that isnt freely accessible is darkweb really. But idk how telegram works and if its fair to call it that.

Nana's exclusive Facebook group was the dark web all along? Why is she selling my email address?

It is part of the deep web, just like Discord or any sites hosted on private companies intranets. Lemmy is not, you can just hit any instance with a web browser and view stuff.

To be completely clear, dark web/net and deep web are two different things. That wiki link you used is describing dark web stuff like tor etc.

There are definitely plenty of people on Telegram running channels advertising stolen CCs, exploits, and phishing kits.

I think it's fair to call it the "dark web" because it fits the technical definition.

Isn't Telegram home to a lot of stuff that most people associate with the dark Web? I mean, there's groups you can buy illicit material, both digital and physical in, and some radicals as well as a lot of conspiracy nuts use it to organise.

I mean, you can probably find stuff like that with any messenger, but Telegram offers public discoverability for groups, so it's more visible.

It doesn't actually mean much in a technical sense, but I think you can write an article with that premise without most people seeing it as clickbait.
