DESCRIPTION
-----------
__tor__ is a connection-oriented anonymizing communication
Tor is a connection-oriented anonymizing communication
service. Users choose a source-routed path through a set of nodes, and
negotiate a "virtual circuit" through the network, in which each node
knows its predecessor and successor, but no others. Traffic flowing down
the circuit is unwrapped by a symmetric key at each node, which reveals
the downstream node. +
Basically __tor__ provides a distributed network of servers ("onion routers").
Users bounce their TCP streams -- web traffic, ftp, ssh, etc -- around the
routers, and recipients, observers, and even the routers themselves have
Basically, Tor provides a distributed network of servers or relays ("onion routers").
Users bounce their TCP streams -- web traffic, ftp, ssh, etc. -- around the
network, and recipients, observers, and even the relays themselves have
difficulty tracking the source of the stream.
