The data are sent via a distributed network of Tor relays operated by volunteers around the world. This is to prevent third parties from recognizing from the Internet connection which websites a user visits and where the user's physical location is (e.g. to block websites).<\/p>\n<p>Included is the Tor Browser (Firefox-based), which communicates over the Tor network and is available for Microsoft Windows, Apple MacOS or GNU\/Linux. Tor is portable, so you can use its features without installing any software. Tor can run from a USB flash drive, for example, and comes with a preconfigured web browser to protect anonymity. The whole package is self-contained (portable).<\/p>\n<h2>Tor Browser 7.5.1 and 7.5.2<\/h2>\n<p>Tor version 7.5.1 ist a maintenance update. The Tor project is based on Mozilla Firefox 52.7.0.
