First of all, it’s hidden sevices, not dark web. Second, to anyone crawling hidden services or crawling over tor, please run a relay or decrease your hop. Don’t sacrifice other’s desperate need for anonymity for your $whatever_purpose_thats_probably_not_important. It could be some fun thing to do for you, but some people are relying on tor to use the free, secure and anonymous Internet.

I am no TOR expert, but how does decreasing the amount of hops or running your own relay decrease the privacy of other people?

You are right. That's why it's an educational project and not a public search engine
IANAL but "educational project" won't fly in court, and nor should it.
Why should I face legal problems?

Must one rely on appeals such as this (i.e. a cultural solution) or does tor have a technological solution to the problem you're describing?

I don't host a Trandoshan instance neither give access to a database of results. I Only provide access to the source code. Why should I face legal problems?
I am guessing you have some personal instance you use at least for testing/"education", right?

I mean, it's a dumb idea, but until you force people to contribute, most won't. I've looked at doing it, but didn't want to deal with legal headaches b/c creepy pedos use tor, too.
