Browse privately and explore freely, defend yourself against tracking and surveillance online. The totalitarian state that western governments have begun are pushing extremely hard to introduce new hate speech laws reminicient of cold war Russia. Such powers will allow them to dicatate what you can and cannot view online and if caught looking at any content they deem "hatefull" you could end up with a heafty fine and/or a jail sentence.
Tor, short for The Onion Router, is open-source software for enabling anonymous communication. It directs Internet traffic via a worldwide, volunteer overlay network that consists of more than seven thousand relays.
Using Tor makes it more difficult to trace a user's Internet activity. Tor protects personal privacy by concealing a user's location and usage from anyone performing network surveillance or traffic analysis. It protects the user's freedom and ability to communicate confidentially through IP address anonymity using Tor exit nodes.
Tech bit over now in English
Tails is a portable operating system that protects against surveillance and censorship.
The TailsOS USB Stick is a standard USB stick that you can insert into any computer and boot the Tails operating system.
Tails uses the Tor network to protect your privacy online and help you avoid censorship. Enjoy the Internet like it should be.
Shut down the computer and start on your Tails USB stick instead of starting on Windows, macOS, or Linux.
Tails leaves no trace on the computer when shut down.
Tor also prevents the websites that you are visiting from learning where and who you are, unless you tell them. You can visit websites anonymously or change your identity.
Tails is a operating system that uses the Tor network for all communication. When you boot from the USB stick Tails is loaded to memory only which means once you power the computer off all data is immediately gone, no trace, no history, no logs. In addition anything you decide to look at will not be tracked or monitored in real-time.
We have already seen the most basic questioning of government policy being branded "far right". It may not be long before that language changes to "domestic terrorist" etc. Protect yourself and your family by leaving no trace of your internet browsing and avoid censorship by local ISP's by becoming a ghost online.
