Oct 28, 2018 at 15:29 | comment | added | Oddthinking♦ | @The_Sympathizer: A Meta question now exists. | |
Oct 28, 2018 at 15:12 | comment | added | The_Sympathizer | @Oddthinking : What should I post there? What would be the right question to ask? | |
Oct 28, 2018 at 15:12 | comment | added | Oddthinking♦ | @The_Sympathizer: Let's take it to meta, where the community can weigh in. | |
Oct 28, 2018 at 15:06 | comment | added | The_Sympathizer | @Oddthinking : Moreover, what is the right question to be asking when confronted with a claim like this? | |
Oct 28, 2018 at 15:05 | comment | added | The_Sympathizer | @Oddthinking : While you cannot prove a negative, isn't there some sense at least in which this claim could be considered less "plausible" or less "credible" than, say, a claim that a certain medicine is more likely to cause some side effect than was thought, etc.? If not, what is the "right" question to be asking and why does it "intuitively" seem like something to be considered closer to "nonsense"? | |
Oct 28, 2018 at 2:41 | comment | added | Oddthinking♦ | @elliotsvensson: I don't know what supermoderation is (despite my avatar). It was self-deleted by the owner after 7 downvotes and 4 upvotes. | |
Oct 28, 2018 at 0:18 | comment | added | elliot svensson | @Oddthinking, was the second answer deleted on your own initiative, or because of supermoderation (or for another reason)? | |
Oct 27, 2018 at 23:19 | comment | added | Oddthinking♦ | @elliotsvensson: IMO, your title change ("Is there any evidence") makes it worse. It doesn't help because it still has the "prove a negative" problem - how do you prove there is no evidence? Meanwhile, simpler titles are preferred for easier browsing. Providing evidence is expected of every answer. [And it opens up the Bayesian debate of what "evidence" is. The iceberg infographic IS evidence of the existence of Marianas Trench, and you should update your priors upon seeing it... but it isn't strong evidence, and your priors should only shift ever so slightly. | |

Oct 27, 2018 at 1:02 | comment | added | Oddthinking♦ | This is indeed a difficult question to answer, but not merely because it is hard to prove a negative, but because the OP demonstrates that even after reading references that argue it is nonsense, they are not convinced. An answer must be better quality (more definitive) than the Quora answers and the Engadget article. | |
Oct 26, 2018 at 20:33 | comment | added | Bradley Thomas | OP, I don't believe your definition of Mariana's Web is precise enough to permit an accurate answer to your question. If your definition of existence is that there is some server that requires a tool other than Tor to access, then that is trivially true, since many commercial APIs are secured and would at least require authentication | |

Title question made answerable (now you wouldn't have to prove a negative).

Oct 26, 2018 at 14:20 | comment | added | elliot svensson | It's going to be very difficult to provide any answer other than "we don't know"... to say "No there's not" would require proving a negative! I think the question as worded "Is there any evidence..." is much more answerable. | |

Cite the claims. Let other people describe it. Avoid calling it deep web. Fix the title.
