HOW TO READ THE EYE

Useful first.
Honest always.

01

Reachability, not endorsement

A check confirms that a listed page returned a response at the recorded time. It does not certify the site's safety, accuracy, legality, privacy practices, API behavior or regional availability.

02

Alternatives are nearby

Open a resource card's “Similar places” drawer to compare other options in the same subcategory. Free, freemium, paid, account-required and open-source labels are kept distinct.

03

Surface web, for now

This build checks public HTTP(S) pages only. No .onion destination has been verified. Listings are starting points, not a review of linked material or a grant of rights. Check title-specific ratings, editions, regional access and licensing with the provider. A VPN does not change licensing or local rules.

TRANSPARENCY

A directory, not a mirror.

The Eye is independently built and curated. It does not host or proxy linked content. Listings lead to external providers and, where labeled, discovery indexes. A link check tests reachability only; it does not review content, safety, privacy, licensing or legal status. Verify ratings, editions, prices, rights and regional access with the provider. A VPN does not change licensing or local rules.

Editorial selections are curated by The Eye. Discovery indexes may link to third-party items that have not been checked individually. API directory data is reused under MIT and attributed above. The 18+ switch is a self-declaration, not age verification; this directory does not host explicit adult media.

This switch is a self-declaration, not age or identity verification. It does not restrict access to the page source.
