@alexivanov Tor provides privacy from your local ISP yes. But remember that browsing unencrypted sites through Tor is risky (the exit nodes are your new ISPs, with added power/incentive to modify your traffic).
Always use enforced, verified encryption (don't blindly click "ok" on TLS/HTTPS warnings) and if you're surfing the web you should disable Javascript for unencrypted websites.

I hear there's this thing called timezones. It's all related to the Earth being round and spinning you know.

Tor's perfectly healthy .)
But all the cp sites are run by the feds nowadays, so that's why people get busted: http://gizmodo.com/why-the-fbi-ran-a-child-porn-site-for-two-whole-weeks-510247728

I know at least 3 americans who aren't freedumb champions!

@disassemblyline Tor is libre software (thus usable and revisable by _anyone_ including the navy and your friendly neighborhood doge) and some of the most respected people in the hacker community are deeply involved with the project. Tor project people make regular appearances at the #CCC where no military entity is welcome by convention.
I don't care where some of the original funding came from, as the project today is strongly working to move away from reliance upon any major funding source (the current mostly-government money is too restricted and only allows for some kinds of work - not the other disruptive and awesome things the Tor Project can do :))

@rw Hey now, chill out. We don't hate the Americans. We hate the capitalist pigs. Even those demographies may overlap somewhat.

"privacy from"... What I mean is that your local ISP can only see that you're using Tor. And not what goes on in that connection.
