hacking: security in practice
Text string that crashes text editors

I've seen in some youtube videos of people doing malware analysis that some hackers put at the end of their source code a string of characters that is not interpretable by text editors, and the only way to get the content of the file is to remove from the terminal the last line of the file and then open it.

Could someone tell me where to find this string and explain me why this happens? (I suppose it's because the characters inside are not interpretable, but it seems quite strange since it reminds me the iphone bug)

Deep Web
Is it illegal to browse deep web sites ?

I'm curious about the deep web, and I want to check if these black market sites are real. I'm not going to be purchasing anything (why I'm posting this on reddit with no VPN, I don't mind my ISP tracking me because im not going to be doing anything like that) or viewing demented stuff (you can guess). but seeing all the posts and stories about sites like the Silk Road and such, is it illegal to simply view these sites? I feel like it's not but I wanna check to make sure
