What is Tor Browser ?

Tor Browser

Tor Browser is basically a tool that helps us surf the web just like Chrome, Opera, Firefox or any other web browser. However, unlike standard browsers, it routes all internet traffic through the Tor network. In this way, bypassing all restrictions, it enables us to securely access "Surface Web" and hidden services called "Dark Web" through the Tor network.

Tor Browser was created by customizing the Firefox browser for the Tor project. It is a practical solution for connecting to the Tor network via various operating systems. Although there is no officially supported browser for iOS yet, there are browsers with official support for Android, Windows, Linux and Mac.

Unlike regular browsers, Tor browsers come with various restrictions and security measures, apart from routing all internet traffic through the Tor network. So it is fully optimized for security and privacy.

Before going into the details of browser usage, you should first learn where and how to download the Tor browser.
