Hello D M, It is important to keep in mind that Tor is not a "product" - its a labor of love created by a large group of talented people who do their best. It isn't a turnkey solution; you don't install it, double click an icon, and now you've regained your online privacy. It is a tool that can, when understood and used with care, can help you evade surveillance.
But it is less of a simple tool, like a hammer, and more of a power tool, like a jigsaw. It isn't obvious how to use it properly. If used improperly, not only will it fail to solve your problem, you'll be worse off than you were before. Be very careful in your research before deciding Tor is a good idea for your situation. And yes, it is pretty slow. Sincerely, Max On Sun, Sep 20, 2015 at 12:36 AM, D M <[email protected]> wrote: > I just stumbled upon the internet security that can be had with this > program.
