Actually, tor wraps the original traffic in encryption and tunnels it
through the 3 hops of a circuit. We do not touch the original data.
Sorry....I'm not trying to be dumb but I'm unclear how your answer differs
from my assumption.
Tor takes all the data (header and content), encrypts it three times on the
client (me), and then at each node one layer is unencrypted OR is it all of
it unencrypted at the exit node?
