Journalists use Tor to communicate more safely with whistleblowers and dissidents. Individuals also use Tor for socially sensitive communication: chat rooms and web forums for rape and abuse survivors, or people with illnesses. Tor's hidden services let users publish web sites and other services without needing to reveal the location of the site. Individuals use Tor to keep websites from tracking them and their family members, or to connect to news sites, instant messaging services, or the like when these are blocked by their local Internet providers. Tor provides the foundation for a range of applications that allow organizations and individuals to share information over public networks without compromising their privacy. It also enables software developers to create new communication tools with built-in privacy features. Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. The Tor Project is passionate about bringing technology, training, and greater awareness in digital security for journalists around the world. Tor Project is an organization conducting extensive research and building technology solutions, including the Tor Browser Bundle, used by journalists to anonymize their web browsing habits and physical location.
