Josh Duggar ‘used darkweb’ to bypass software that would ‘report’ & ‘monitor’ internet porn usage to pregnant wife Anna
JOSH Duggar "used the dark web" to bypass software that would "report" and "monitor" his internet porn usage to his pregnant wife, Anna.

Josh was never charged with any crime related to the incidents.
