Dark Internet  A dark Internet,[1] dark address, lost net, dark address space, greynet or sparse darknets[2][1] refers to any or all network hosts on the Internet that no-one can reach.[1] According to some estimates, only 0.03% of the web is searchable, hence leaving 99.97% of all data being dark Internet.[3] The dark Internet should not be confused with deep web or darknet distributed filesharing, which refer to hard-to-find websites and secretive networks that span the Internet; however, they are accessible from the internet. Also, in comparison to the deep web or Darknet, the data on the dark Internet is generally harmless in nature, being kept off the internet simply because it is data which most people wont need or search for anyway. Types of data include databases, chat records, and raw data which has been used for scientific articles.[4] Causes Failures within the allocation of Internet resources due to the Internets chaotic tendencies of growth and decay are a leading cause of dark address formation. One form of dark address is military sites on the archaic MILNET. These government networks are sometimes as old as the original ARPANET, and have simply not been incorporated into the Internets evolving architecture. #TLALI
