TOR is a technology that enables you to anonymize your internet browsing traffic so the websites you visit cannot be tracked by third parties. Tor is also an effective censorship circumvention tool, allowing its users to reach otherwise blocked destinations or content. Tor states that Journalists use Tor to communicate more safely with whistleblowers and dissidents. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) use Tor to allow their workers to connect to their home website while they’re in a foreign country, without notifying everybody nearby that they’re working with that organization.
