Tor Browser

great when traveling and to keep advertisers away

Kommentare: Tor has increased the sense of privacy and confidentiality for personal or private use, especially when traveling to some countries where privacy laws do not exist. I like to have a sense of control over what I do online, and Tor has addressed that. I highly recommend this product to protect your browsing session.

Vorteile:

I like the feeling that I can search for things without leaving traces on my computer. I also like that the level of privacy and security settings are customizable (keep in mind that the higher the security level, the more likely some websites will lose their features and stop working properly by losing functionality). I just keep it at a minimum, or at a maximum according to my needs (if I need to access a website that appears suspicious, I'll hit the highest level of protection). Since the software is open-source I feel that it can be relied on. Tor is updated quite often which is essential considering that threats appear every day. Finally, this awesome service is provided for free! (you can support the developers online if you wish)

Nachteile:

The (however expected) slow speed at times, or disconnection, but it's hard to have your cake and eat it too. sometimes Tor doesn't connect at all (gets stuck at 'loading relay information'), and I need to manually connect through a bridge...that could be automatized to avoid the need to go in the settings to request a new bridge.
