+About the company:<br> |
|
| 98 |
+ The Tor Project is a US 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to research, |
|
| 99 |
+ development, and education about online anonymity and privacy. The Tor |
|
| 100 |
+ network's 3000 volunteer relays carry 14 Gbps for upwards of half a |
|
| 101 |
+ million daily users, including ordinary citizens who want protection |
|
| 102 |
+ from identity theft and prying corporations, corporations who want |
|
| 103 |
+ to look at a competitor's website in private, people around the world |
|
| 104 |
+ whose Internet connections are censored, and even governments and law |
|
| 105 |
+ enforcement. Tor has a staff of 15 paid developers, researchers, and |
|
| 106 |
+ advocates, plus many dozen volunteers who help out on a daily basis. Tor |
|
| 107 |
+ is funded in part by government research and development grants, and |
|
| 108 |
+ in part by individual and corporate donations. |
