The Tor software protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you visit, it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location, and it lets you access sites which are blocked.
The Tor Browser lets you use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser to protect your anonymity, and is self-contained.

You’re being hacked and tracked
There is a web of invisible trackers on many of the websites you visit and apps you use. Unsecured connections and hidden requests for your personal info leave you vulnerable to privacy and security threats. We show you what's going on and allow you to block the trackers and hackers.
