  • Category Description: An intermediary which prevents Web sites from seeing a user's Internet Protocol (IP) address. Anonymizers are often used to circumvent company network acceptable use policies to potentially hide non-appropriate behavior, however in the home setting they may be used to provide additional layers of anonymity and protect privacy.
    Official Description: Tor is a software project that helps you defend against traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security. Tor protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you visit, and it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location. Tor works with many of your existing applications, including web browsers, instant messaging clients, remote login, and other applications based on the TCP protocol.
    Comment: Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allow users to maintain their anonymity on the internet.
