About not Evil

not Evil is a Tor search engine that indexes hidden services on the Tor network. Our mission is to make the deep web accessible and searchable while respecting privacy and anonymity.

What We Do

We crawl and index .onion websites across the Tor network, building a comprehensive database of hidden services.

Our Principles

• Privacy First — We do not track users, store search queries, or log IP addresses.
• No Censorship — We index the Tor network as it exists, providing unfiltered access to information.
• No JavaScript Required — Our site works fully without JavaScript for maximum security.
• Open Access — not Evil is free to use for everyone.

How It Works

Our crawler continuously navigates the Tor network, following links and discovering new hidden services. Each page is parsed, indexed, and made searchable through our search interface. We update our index regularly to keep results fresh and relevant.

History

not Evil was created as a successor to TorSearch and other early Tor search engines. The name is a reference to the famous motto “Don’t be evil” — we believe in providing search without surveillance.
