Description: | |
In this third Tor article, we will discover the web browser **Tor | |
Browser**. | |
The **Tor Browser** is an official Tor project. It is a modified | |
Firefox, including some defaults settings changes and some extensions. | |
The default changes are all related to privacy and anonymity. It has | |
been made to be easy to browse the Internet through Tor without | |
leaving behind any information which could help identify you, because | |
there are much more information than your public IP address which | |
could be used against you. | |
It requires tor daemon to be installed and running, as I covered in my | |
first Tor article. | |
Using it is really straightforward. | |
#### How to install tor-browser | |
$ pkg_add tor-browser | |
#### How to start tor-browser | |
$ tor-browser | |
It will create a ~/TorBrowser-Data folder at launch. You can remove it | |
as you want, it doesn't contain anything sensitive but is required for | |
it to work. |
