Really Private Browsing: An Unofficial User’s Guide to Tor

Really Private Browsing: An Unofficial User’s Guide to Tor

The issue of privacy on the Internet has long been a difficult one: there are a lot of good reasons that you might be leery of strangers reading your emails or spying on the websites you visit.

A number of powerful tools exist which allow you to protect your privacy online. One of the most useful of these tools is called Tor. Tor provides truly anonymous and untraceable browsing and messaging, as well as access to the so called "Deep Web", a network of anonymous, untraceable, unblockable websites, available only through Tor, which provide everything from resources for political activists to pirated movies. The military-grade encryption behind Tor is so powerful that it can't plausibly be broken by any organization on the planet.

In this guide, Andre Infante of petafl0p.com talks us through how Tor works and exactly how to set it up and start using it.
