About

Tor Browser is a free, privacy-focused web browser that routes internet traffic through the Tor network using multi-layered encryption. It blocks trackers, resists browser fingerprinting, and prevents surveillance of browsing activity. Developed by the Tor Project, a US nonprofit, it enables users to bypass censorship and browse anonymously.

Problem

Users face tracking, surveillance, fingerprinting, and censorship when browsing the internet.

For

Anyone seeking online privacy, journalists, activists, and users in censored regions

How it works

Traffic is relayed and encrypted three times through thousands of volunteer-run Tor relay servers, masking the user's identity and location.
