Darknet is hardly dark, or no more than Tor anonymizes, PKC protects, official secrecy keeps secrets. What they are are seductive lures that siren sailors to blindly pursue lustful comforts of heroic Greek mythology espoused by temple maidens turned to stone by inhaling excess incense. Still, the monuments of folly lure tourists to fatten pigeons and bloat architects of incensed vengeance, aka spies and warfighters who, with complicit elected officials, are the world's shrewdest mythologists.
Moving 10G/day/node to or from clearnet is possible. Posting in the darknet might find you parallel armies of sympathetic nodes willing to help with task.

true; perhaps best quantified as: "no ISP asshattery". but fails like all earth human technology in face of capable attacker with significant resources. [ specifically, onion overlay avoids TCP RST, DNS redir, local network ARP poisoning, IPv4/IPv6 BGP route jacking, transport privacy and authenticity** attacks (rewrite proxy) ] ** key management, someone has to do it. and it is always cumbersome... but that is nary a sliver in the sky of surface exposed, in typical "rich web service" context, full of javascript and media handlers and plug-ins, oh my! tell us John, do your server logs show mostly complete or incomplete downloads of Cfour? :P
