I am finding a lot of stuff telling me the darkweb is an “overlay network” meaning it is built on top of another network. What? How?

Darknet is mostly the tor network(there are a few other similar versions out there too’9. Highly encrypted anonymous network where you have to connect using the tor software to see whats there. So unless if you have the software you cannot connect to it, and everyone on there are anonymous.
