##### TOR
##### Tor
TOR or The Onion Router was originally developed to keep U.S. military communications secure, and is now used world-wide to bypass censorship.
TOR will route your network traffic through 3 servers worldwide randomly.
Tor or The Onion Router was originally developed to keep U.S. military communications secure, and is now used world-wide to bypass censorship.
Tor will route your network traffic through 3 servers worldwide randomly.
``entry-node`` -> ``middle-node`` -> ``exit-node``.
This setup means that the ``entry-node`` will only have your IP address, the ``middle-node`` will only see the IP of ``entry-node`` __NOT__ your IP address.
``exit-node`` is the only node which will see *all* of your network traffic.
Utilizing TOR with other ``.onion`` sites, means that neither your IP nor the servers IP address is exposed. Like your traffic going through 3 nodes or "hops", the a server running on the TOR network also goes through the same, meaning that the ``exit-node`` *cannot* see your network traffic.

With TOR, anyone is able to setup a node meaning that you cannot possible trust anything, which there are many issues including a malicious ``exit-node``, setup by an adversary in an attempt to de-anonymize users.
The TOR network is not as secure as many put it, there are a variety of attacks that can be used to de-anonymize users. An adversary can setup multiple malicious ``entry``, ``middle``, and ``exit`` nodes, then can DDoS other public TOR nodes which can either shut them offline or increase the already terrible speeds.

This could force a user to connect to the adversary's malicious nodes.
On a large DDoS scale, it is possible to be connected to all 3 malicious nodes, which would ultimately de-anonymize you.
Many people argue against using VPNs with TOR, though there can be real-world benefits to having a setup like this.
If you are worried about an adversary knowing you are connecting to the TOR network this can be beneficial, but keep in mind your adversary can see you connect to the VPN.

If you are concerned about a malicious ``entry-node``, using a VPN can mask your IP address in this case.
If you are using an "amnesic" setup such as Tails or anon-whonix on QubesOS, you do not need to worry about having the same ``guard-node``.
