Tor Browser
Defend yourself against tracking and surveillance. Circumvent censorship.
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.
Traffic is relayed and encrypted three times through thousands of volunteer-run Tor relay servers, masking the user's identity and location.
Anyone seeking online privacy, journalists, activists, and users in censored regions
