Will this work? Napolitano and O are trying to silence us. This is getting more and more like an emerging Islamic USSR.
Many of us in the tech world are aware of and use the tor network, but it bears repeating.
I use the tor Firefox addon.

SO,
You have personally checked this to be certain it’s not the opposite from some black ops gov agency of the oligarchy?
LOL.
Sounds nice.
I’m skeptical anything can provide any privacy in our era.
If you click on a link that launches another application such as IRC or IM will the TOR app ask you for permission to launch? If not, your real IP is going to get sent when the connection is made.
“To prove his point, he ran SSLstrip on a server hosting a Tor anonymous browsing network. During a 24-hour period, he harvested 254 passwords from users visiting sites including Yahoo, Gmail, Ticketmaster, PayPal, and LinkedIn. The users were fooled even though SSLstrip wasn't using the proxy feature that tricks them into believing they were at a secure site. Sadly, the Tor users entered passwords even though the addresses in their address bars didn't display the crucial “https.” (Marlinspike said he later disposed of all personally identifiable information).”

Tor will also turn your home computer into a semi-secure router for all sorts of crime-related uses, without your knowledge. All you will know is that the FBI turns up on your doorstep with proof your modem attempted exploits which were done half a world away.
Stay away from TOR.
Hmmm
I like the concept. I did some volunteer work for a charter school in Colorado re. their computer network. A couple of the kids were using TOR, and were righteously busted for it. I hadn’t played with TOR, so I tried it out when I got home.
In my experience, it is blindingly slow. I would have difficulty dealing with it, it was so slow. Did I tell you it is slow?
Again, the concept is nice, but it fails in the implementation .
Can you say “False Security”... LOL...
How long before this is declared illegal?
