The Onion Router, formally known as the Tor Project, became a nonprofit in 2006.
Much like the layers of an onion, messages go through layers of encryption, bouncing off each other until the original source for the request can’t be traced. It works through onion routing, a technique browsers use for secret communication on computer networks. Tor is open-source free software created with the goal of enabling anonymous communication over the web.
But Tor, the private “onion router” browser created by the Tor Project, works to keep connections private and free of tracking, allowing users to browse the Internet with as much anonymity as possible. There are private search engines like DuckDuckGo, but they aren’t as all-encompassing as a browser. Google and other search engines don’t value users’ privacy, collecting vast amounts of data. Finding an Internet browser that offers privacy to users is difficult to find.
