Tor Browser (Alpha)

Tor Browser is a free and open source application that allows users to browse the internet anonymously and securely. It is developed by the Tor Project, a nonprofit organization based in the US. While the app will always be free, donations from users help to support its development and maintenance. If you find the app useful, please consider making a contribution to the Tor Project.

One of the main features of Tor Browser is its ability to block third-party trackers and ads, ensuring that your online activity cannot be tracked by these entities. Additionally, all cookies are automatically cleared when you finish browsing, further protecting your privacy.

Another important aspect of Tor Browser is its defense against surveillance. By using the app, your internet service provider or anyone monitoring your connection will only be able to see that you are using Tor, but not the specific websites you visit. This helps to protect your online activity from being monitored and tracked.

Tor Browser also aims to resist fingerprinting, which is the process of identifying and tracking users based on their browser and device information. By making all users look the same, it becomes difficult for anyone to fingerprint and track individual users.

The app also utilizes multi-layered encryption, where your internet traffic is relayed and encrypted three times as it passes through the Tor network. This network is made up of thousands of volunteer-run servers called Tor relays, providing an extra layer of security for your online activity.

One of the benefits of using Tor Browser is the ability to access websites that may be blocked by your local internet service provider. This allows for a more open and free browsing experience.

The Tor Project relies on donations from users to continue developing and maintaining the app. By making a donation, you can help keep Tor strong, secure, and independent. Additionally, you can learn more about Tor Browser and the Tor Project by visiting their website, blog, and social media pages.
