Tor Browser is a free, open source web browser that allows users to access the internet anonymously by routing connections through the Tor network. It prevents tracking and surveillance of online activity.
Tor Browser is a free, open source web browser that allows users to access the internet anonymously and protect their privacy. It is based on Firefox but has been modified to route internet traffic through the Tor network, which encrypts data and bounces communications around a distributed network of relays to hide a user's location and usage from surveillance or network monitoring.
Using Tor Browser helps prevent tracking of online activity and location, blocks ads and malware, and allows users to bypass censorship. Websites and services see traffic coming from the Tor network rather than a user's actual IP address or location. Tor encryption also hides what sites you visit from your internet service provider.
Some key features of Tor Browser include forced HTTPS encryption on all sites for improved security, no configuration required for censorship circumvention or geo-spoofing, a security slider to adjust levels of browser privacy, and embedded Tor networking for accessing .onion sites. It is often slower than a typical browser due to its multi-hop routing.
