At least that's my understanding.

I thought
deep web = things that aren't crawlable by standard web crawlers, with them being stuff that you can get to via Tor.
dark net = more like private networks that people use Freenet to get to, and that it is not information that as easily (comparatively) found as what you can find on Tor.
I could be totally wrong though. I haven't been to either one, though the idea beckons me like a siren song, for some reason. It's like wanting to take a trip through the worst neighborhood in town, just to check it out.
