Many people have heard of Tor in the media, but despite its long history of protecting the free internet, most consider it a niche tool and have never ventured to try it themselves.

In reality, Tor is easy to use for anyone. It helps not only journalists and activists, but anybody who seeks greater privacy online or access to information regardless of location.

What is Tor exactly? How can Tor help you? And why is it such an important tool? Staff writer @Em0nM4stodon explains in the latest Privacy Guides article: privacyguides.org/articles/202…

I heard, but in the sense of illegal content (YT from 2014 - 2018 in short about the Tor)

I use tor everyday, and enjoy onion services. It's just a little slow, but that's not the main problem: many websites block tor users. Personally, what I do when this happens is just, not use the website

Tor is awesome! I do have a random concern though, maybe unfounded: now that DuckDuckGo is incorporating AI, is it still a safe option as a landing page? I used to use DuckDuckGo regularly, but the addition of AI and the worsening of search results has made me uninstall and shift searches to Mullvad or Maapl.
