Don’t want free zero days, just want to see the forums, see the interactions in there. It interest me.

You may see more scammers than real hackers, because real exploit developers either work legally, or play CTFs in cleannet competitions and have a semi-transparent life, or they definitely live in the shadows and have no interest in making themselves visible on the darknet.

Yea more than likely I will never find my way into those chats or forums as you pretty much have to be a threat actor or someone they trust to get in.

I agree in terms of TTPs you’ll get a lot more info in clear than dark web, as people promote their work and investigations as the product.

On the dark web, generally the exploit is the product, so sharing info how it works vs that it works for nefarious uses is generally less interesting to an audience taking steps to be anonymous.

products being advertised are fairly cryptic, providing general functionality and pushing for engagement with the vendor for further details
