I think the industry kinda collectively decided that not all things needed to be equally discoverable, and that sometimes it makes more sense for things to be discoverable in context, via local reference etc etc. It was no longer a bug/anti-affordance for content to be "deep"

Now we in fact go around actively adding depth to content (ie weaken default level of discoverability) through a whole stack of tactics. The dark/grey web dimension of legally/morally questionable content is just a narrow slice.

All dark content is deep content, but not all deep content is dark content. There is a whole spectrum between "memorable title and google-able" and "locked down behind 2FA and darkweb addressing pathways"

A lot of content just wants to live in a quiet neighborhood off the information superhighway. Not strictly speaking private or with access barriers, but not exactly discoverable either if you don't know what you're looking for or aren't pointed to it by someone else.
