All you need for it is a local Tor node (just open Tor Browser), Python and Socksi Py library.

Here is the script, that downloads the Pirate Bay main page through Tor and shows its contents.

No problem, choose your weapon: Torch, Grams, not Evil, Fess, Candle, Ahima and maybe a few more Googlings.

We won’t even try comparing the search quality of the above, we don’t have special metrics and procedures at our disposal, but here are some subjective comments.

In clearnet before the modern search engines were created this problem had been solved with classic useful links catalogues.

In a sense, this article is the same thing, it is showcasing the websites that are of interest and are currently alive – the only difference being that we do not get paid for publishing the links.

Requesting pages from your own scripts though Tor is no more complicated than from clearnet.

Its logo looks like an eye with three scary blood drops under it.

“Bleeding from the eyes” is what you actually feel looking at this site, so the metaphor is legit.

The interface seems to have arrived right from the 90’s, crazy colors, ads all over the place, annoying captcha (you have to fill it both when logging in and sending mail), mailbox limited to only 50 Mb, problems with encoding…

All in all the user experience resembles Middle-age tortures.
