    Used by people in countries where if you browse the wrong sites the army or police take you away. Was developed by the US to enable disidents to use the Internet and communicate.

      i thought the title read "access to the Danknet" and was used by people in countries who were born too late to experience history, too early to explore space, but just in time to access Dank memes

        The danknet is all around us my friend.

      Used in those Orwellion countries where the government keeps records of your browsing and communication history so it can be used against you if need be.

    Where do you see the ratings/reviews? No reviews found in App Store.

      You have to click from the "current version" tab to the "all reviews" tab and then you will see the 20 ratings.

      They couldn't verify the users…

    You just never know when KGB decides to audit your internet browsing.
    Sorry, didn't mean to make you paranoid.

          Close enough :P. I always thought he was Russian purely off his accent.

  • ashar on 05/02/2016 - 08:56

    Is this an alternate to VPN? I mean will the ISP be aware of my traffic?

      I wouldn't recommend Tor if you're in Australia. It very slow, and if you're doing something that needs that level of protection it's probably (very) illegal.

        It is okay for an unblocking service if you are behind a work/school proxy.

    Make sure to use https sites where possible to protect your info from the providers of this software.

    TOR itself is insecure. Its design has been proven insecure over and over again.

    • Doge on 05/02/2016 - 12:23

      Yes, I also wanted to mention this. Before using Tor you should do your research and learn a bit about how it works. Whoever is in control of guard nodes and exit nodes (NSA, CIA, etc) can basically control the network and determine your identity. Also the fact that you can be used as a relay means that your IP could be used for shady activities far worse than 'piracy'.

      • hashtagbargain on 05/02/2016 - 15:32

        Can you confirm if this app uses your connection as a relay? Or are you speaking generally?

        • Doge on 05/02/2016 - 15:52

          I was just thinking generally, I don't know for this specific app. Are you willing to trust that they aren't?

          You normally need to opt-in to be a relay on your computer. Regardless of whether you are a relay or not I wouldn't trust it with my privacy on the internet.

  • cim85 on 06/02/2016 - 14:36

    Thanks OP, will give it a go!
