This article addresses the problem of distributing copyrighted thematic content to increase the possibilities for restricting access to such content. The analysis of existing solutions in this area is carried out, highlighting the shortcomings of these solutions, options for applying these methods to limit the distribution of thematic content in hidden parts of the Internet.

The results of the experiment highlighted the pros and cons of the proposed approach. The final part contains conclusions about the possibility of using the proposed approach in hidden networks.
