en/index.wml  32) <p>Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against a form of network

en/index.wml  33) surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential

en/index.wml  34) business activities and relationships, and state security known as <a
en/index.wml  35) href="<page overview>">traffic analysis</a>.</p>

en/index.wml  36) 

en/index.wml  37) <p>Tor protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed

en/index.wml  38) network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents
en/index.wml  39) somebody watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you

en/index.wml  40) visit, and it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical

en/index.wml  41) location.  Tor works with many of your existing applications, including web browsers, instant messaging
en/index.wml  42) clients, remote login, and other applications based on the TCP protocol.

en/index.wml  43) </p>
en/index.wml  44) 

en/index.wml  45) <p> Hundreds of thousands of people around the world use Tor for a

en/index.wml  46) wide variety of reasons: journalists and bloggers, human rights workers, law enforcement officers, soldiers,
en/index.wml  47) corporations, citizens of repressive regimes, and just ordinary citizens.  See the <a href="<page torusers>">Who Uses Tor?</a> page for

en/index.wml  48) examples of typical Tor users. See the <a href="<page overview>">overview
en/index.wml  49) page</a> for a more detailed explanation of what Tor does, and why this
en/index.wml  50) diversity of users is important.

en/index.wml  51) </p>
en/index.wml  52) 

en/index.wml  53) <p>Tor doesn't magically encrypt all of your Internet activities,
en/index.wml  54) though. You should <a href="<page download>#Warning">understand what
en/index.wml  55) Tor does and does not do for you</a>.</p>
en/index.wml  56) 

en/index.wml  57) <p>

en/index.wml  58) Tor's security improves as its user

en/index.wml  59) base grows and as more people volunteer to

en/index.wml  60) <a href="<page docs/tor-doc-relay>">run relays</a>. (It isn't

en/index.wml  61) nearly as hard to set up as you might think, and can significantly

en/index.wml  62) <a href="https://wiki.torproject.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#RelayAnonymity">

en/index.wml  63) enhance your own security</a>.)

en/index.wml  64) If running a relay isn't for you, we need
en/index.wml  65) <a href="<page volunteer>">help with many other aspects of the project</a>,

en/index.wml  66) and we need funds to continue making the Tor network faster and easier to use while maintaining good

en/index.wml  67) security.</p>

en/index.wml  68) 

en/index.wml  69) <p>Tor is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit whose mission is to allow you to protect your Internet traffic from analysis. Please make a <a href="<page donate>">tax-deductible donation.</a>
