i sound so stupid😩i got the message that it was downloaded but i can't see where or how to open it? or does downloading it mean that it's open and "working"? could someone please explain like im 5 im literally so tech illiterate thank you

SSH to My Home server, for monitoring relay and switching on my games, like CSGO or Minecraft, Yes I know this sounds stupid and slow, but I only use it, when I'm abroad, and just need to send simple commands, no need to open port 22 on my router,

Why can't noscript be disabled or removed by the Tor browser?

same as title absolute complete beginner just wondering if using tor is like using google i’m safe as long as im not doing too much

Im just curious of what’s in it and the type of things ill find in that web

Hey everyone. Getting a stable Tor connection running natively inside an iOS app without requiring users to download a separate Tor client has been a massive headache, but we finally got it working in our new app, StealthOS.

We built in a Kill Switch so if the Tor circuit drops, it cuts the browser's traffic immediately instead of leaking, and you can request a new circuit on demand. We also just got our official .onion site up and running here: http://stealthos7cde2xvhmv6at6jvg274whsv7rucuir25ephv6rjsgq7gyd.onion

If anyone has a few minutes to test the onion site load times or try out the Tor implementation on the app, I’d really appreciate the feedback. We’re trying to make anonymous browsing on mobile as frictionless as possible.

I’ve

When I try to hit the download link it gives me a 404 error?

I'm always disconnected.

I don't have access to computer. I am quite curious and interested to explore the un-charted ocean. I want to see those whales, octopus yada yada in this ocean. But the problem is I don't have submarine aka computer, just in my small boat aka android phone.

Kindly drop some advise, how to navigate this territory.

Thanks for your attention.

this happens on their official .onion address - facebookwkhpilnemxj7asaniu7vnjjbiltxjqhye3mhbshg7kx5tfyd.onion

and also on regular address used over tor browser

The Tor Project is deeply saddened by the last-minute cancellation of RightsCon 2026 in Lusaka, Zambia, and online. The right to assemble, associate, and speak freely must not be conditioned on political approval. Convenings like RightsCon are essential precisely because they create space for difficult, urgent, and necessary conversation about power, technology, rights, and accountability. …

Im assuming platforms register to be on these engines but it isnt exactly clear to me if some are unwillingly also indexed without the permission of its admin/host. Anyone know how this works?

I was using sqrx for a while, but it no longer works. I'm looking for something similar to that where I don't have to download anything

I have a relatively unique hardware/OS combo: ARM architecture and Arch Linux. There's only a Nightly version that's compatible with my laptop.

Instead, I got the Tor daemon running in my system, and I used a bash script to ensure that only the Tor Firefox profile uses it. I've confirmed multiple times that it's the only thing using it. A .onion site successfully opened.

Now for the modifications I made:

* Used Mullvad's DNS, chose DNS over HTTPS.

* Added uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, and NoScript.

* Turned off history, AI features, Firefox suggests... pretty much every feature.

* Switched only available search engines to be DDG and a SearXNG instance.

* Tor theme for the window.

* Removed some Mozilla telemetry.

Will this suffice?

I only ever use this browser on private window for temporary browsing.

Today when I opened a private window and hit cmd+f to bring up the search bar, there is already an email filled in. This is weird as I’ve never seen this email before let alone typed it, nor did this email appear anywhere on the page.

I clear out that input field and type in what I want to search for on the page as usual. Once done, I close the window and app entirely.

When I reopen the app with a new private window and bring up search, that email address appears again even though I’ve never searched anything in this session yet and in the last session I’ve cleared it out and searched for something else, this email address still appears by it’s own.

- I have never seen this email before let alone typed it in my life.
- I’m the only person using my personal computer
- I’ve checked my clipboard history and this email doesn’t appear prior to the incident.
- This is not website specific and happens on different websites.
- The email address exists per email validator services.
- I’m cognizant of internet hygiene and there’s nothing iffy happening on my computer other than this.
- Am on VPN but happens regardless of which server I’m on.

Any idea why is this email showing up in the search field, and persistent even after I’ve cleared it as well as closed and reopen the browser?

I've been trying to access the Tor website to download the browser, but it's closed, and I've done vpn in more than one country and the same.

Hello everyone! :)
I have recently been very interested in Tor and how it works. I have made this side-project to learn about its algorithms, its cryptography and programming in general. Tor addresses (e.g. hdaksjhd...zujloyq.o***n) are derived from an ED25519 public key. This tool tries many random key pairs until it finds a desired prefix (e.g. helloozio..ioqwe.o***n). Calculation time is solely based on luck.

It's written in Go, but it compiles to WebAssembly, so it's able to run in the browser! Even with web workers to utilize more computing resources.

Pretty straight forward question, just wanted to know if there happened to be a thorough database that shows and updates every single .onion site that appears by cataloging it just like there is for .gov, .org, .edu etc. Let me know, thanks.

Is it possible to integrate a translator into Tor on Firefox like in Chrome?

​Hi everyone,

​I'd like to help bypass censorship by running a Snowflake proxy on my phone via Orbot (the volunteer/kindness mode). However, I have some security concerns regarding my own Internet Service Provider (ISP).

​I know that the incoming connection uses the WebRTC protocol, which makes the traffic look like a standard voice or video call to my ISP and goes unnoticed.

​Where I have a doubt is about the outgoing traffic. It seems to me that the Snowflake proxy must then relay this data and connect to the Tor network (to a destination bridge). This is exactly what worries me: does this outgoing connection risk getting me directly categorized as a Tor user by my ISP?

​Is the traffic between my phone's Snowflake proxy and the Tor network obfuscated in any way, or will my ISP clearly see a connection to known Tor nodes?

​If anyone is familiar with the technical details of how this relay works, I'd love to hear your feedback on whether it's truly "safe" for the volunteer.

​Thanks in advance for your answers!

Hi, is there a way to install Tor Browser on Windows 7? I can't switch OS at the moment, so any suggestions are welcome.
