To hide your identity:
* People may not want their data collected * It's popular among civil liberties groups, journalists, and those who maintain online privacy. *They don't want to be found (they may be criminals or want to engage in criminal activity) *They want access to questionable content *They want to use hidden services - although TOR itself is not hidden, the sites and users under it are hidden under layers of darknet encryption.
For criminal purposes:
* Black market trading *Buying illegal goods (e.g., weapons/drugs) * Participating in forums and media exchanges for pedophiles and terrorists
