Default Tor, Hidden Wiki, .Onion, the deep web, etc

Anyone use TOR (the onion router) to to access the deep web/.onion sites/hidden wiki? I have heard a lot about it lately and was curious. However, from reading internet blogs it seems it is only good for illegal shit (guns, drugs, child porn, and murder for hire). None of those things interest me. The only legal things I have heard people talk about using it for is discussing conspiracy shit and government cover-ups. I find the concept very interesting and I have been debating checking it out...but I honestly can't think of what I would do on the deep web that I don't already do on the regular internet.

If you have no idea what I am talking about you can read about them here on wikipedia:

those links aren't to anything sketchy. Just wikipedia articles.

TOR is not safe from the black helicopters regardless of what is implied by its users and those articles

Hell Pirate has craploads of politics and some healthy paranoid conspiracy sprinkled in for good measure. The plus is the dgaf attitude that goes with it makes for good times.:chuckles:
