The nonprofit Tor project (short for The Onion Router) is a distributed network of volunteers who use their computers to route internet traffic anonymously. If this lack of privacy sends shivers down your spine, you’ll be happy to hear that there is a way to preserve your anonymity on the internet while using your Mac. Law enforcement officials, internet service providers, and even website administrators can find out what internet services and resources you accessed, when you accessed them, and what computer you used to access them with. Practically everything you do online with your Mac is logged and traceable back to your computer. If you have any more questions, use the contact form and we'll answer it and add your question here.AirPort Apple Apps Backups Developer Education Email Hardware Internet iPad iPhone Mac Music Network Photos Security TV Weekend Wonk Thankyou Dan for providing this helpful service! More questions? We use the list of IP addresses from for our list of TOR exit nodes. Instead of overly-simplifying information about Tor any further, please have a look at the official Tor Project "About Tor" page for more information on who uses Tor and why. The idea is that if anyone is watching the traffic of one of the exit nodes (or tries to trace internet activity back to the source) they get to the exit node it came from but are unable to trace it further back through the mesh to the origin of the traffic.
When data/information goes in one of the entry points, it bounces around a number of times before exiting one of the exit points.
Tor consists of hundreds of entry/exit points and thousands of internal nodes arranged in a mesh-like fashion.
The name "Tor" is derived from the project name: " The Onion Router". Tor is software designed to allow users to communicate anonymously.
