-    <p>
-    Ahmia is open-source search engine software for Tor hidden service deep
-    dark web sites. You can test the running search engine at ahmia.fi. For
-    more information see our <a
-    href="https://blog.torproject.org/category/tags/ahmiafi">blog post about
-    Ahmia's GSoC2014 development</a>.
-    </p>
-
-    <p>
-    Ahmia is a working search engine that indexes, searches, and catalogs
-    content published on Tor Hidden Services. Furthermore, it is an environment
-    to share meaningful insights, statistics, insights, and news about the Tor
-    network itself. In this context, there is a lot of work to do.
-    </p>
-
-    <p>
-    The Ahmia web service is written using the Django web framework. As a
-    result, the server-side language is Python. On the client-side, most of the
-    pages are plain HTML. There are some pages that require JavaScript, but the
-    search itself works without client-side JavaScript.
