           <h2>Why Anonymity Matters</h2>

           <p>Tor protects you by bouncing your communications around a
           distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around
           the world: it prevents somebody watching your Internet
           connection from learning what sites you visit, and it prevents
           the sites you visit from learning your physical location.
           Tor works with many of your existing applications, including
           web browsers, instant messaging clients, remote login, and

           other applications based on the TCP protocol.<br><span

                 <p>The latest stable Tor version, 0.2.1.30, is <a
                 href="https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-announce/2011-February/000000.html">released</a>.
                 Tor 0.2.1.30 fixes a variety of less critical bugs. The
                 main other change is a slight tweak to Tor's TLS handshake
                 that makes relays and bridges that run this new version
                 reachable from Iran again.  We don't expect this tweak
                 will win the arms race long-term, but it buys us time
                 until we roll out a better solution.
