The video provides a detailed explanation of the Dark Web, one of the layers of the internet. It begins by clarifying that the internet is divided into three layers: the Surface Web, the Deep Web, and the Dark Web. The Surface Web includes everyday websites like social media platforms and news sites, while the Deep Web consists of content not indexed by search engines and requires specific access rights.

However, it also contains legal content from people who want to avoid censorship by their governments. The video emphasizes the dangers of accessing the Dark Web without protection, including the risk of malware and identity theft. It concludes by reiterating the importance of caution when using the internet, particularly when venturing into areas like the Deep Web and Dark Web.
