Tor Browser
What it's for
A network that separates who you are from what you do online, accessible via the Tor Browser.
Why it matters
Your traffic bounces through several encrypted relays worldwide: none knows both your identity and your destination. It’s the tool of journalists and sources, and the way to reach a blocked site (for example to download a censored VPN).
For whom & when
High-risk profiles, and anyone who must decouple their activity from their real IP. Use it occasionally, not as an everyday browser.
Install & use
Download the Tor Browser from torproject.org (Windows, macOS, Linux, Android).
- Launch it and click “Connect.” If Tor is blocked in your country, enable a “bridge.”
Browse without maximising the window, without installing extensions, and without logging into your real accounts.
