Tor Browser

The browser routes web traffic through the Tor network, masking the user’s IP address and encrypting connections to protect against tracking, surveillance, and censorship. It includes built‑in privacy features such as HTTPS‑Only mode, NoScript, and the blocking of plugins that could reveal identifying information. Users can configure bridges during setup to bypass network blocks, and the software provides guidance on common connection issues like incorrect system clocks.

It is intended for individuals who require anonymity online, including activists, journalists, and anyone living under restrictive regimes. The browser is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android, with additional guidance for iOS users toward compatible alternatives. All releases are signed and can be verified, and the project supplies documentation and a support portal for troubleshooting.

The software is open source, free to use, and maintained by a nonprofit organization focused on privacy and human‑rights technologies. Its design emphasizes security defaults and discourages the installation of external add‑ons that could compromise anonymity.
