I regularly go to Dark.fail[0] to get the latest .onions some sites are using, like the BBC:

    https://www.bbcnewsd73hkzno2ini43t4gblxvycyac5aw4gnv7t2rccijh7745uqd.onion

Just be careful out there. All I have to do is alter one letter for the BBC .onion and I can get phished/scammed/duped. For example, this is an altered .onion for BBC:

    https://www.bbcnewsd73hkzno2ini43t4gblxvycyac5aw4gnv7t2rccijh7746uqd.onion

Can you spot the alteration?

How does the PGP verif work? I'm not used to it. There exists a tool here[1] but how does it all work?
