Is it safe to install Tor Browser?

Is Tor safe? Generally using Tor is safe. In fact, Tor was created to browse the internet more freely, safely and anonymously, anonymizing your traffic by guiding it through different servers. However, Tor can be used for some riskier things as well, such as accessing the dark web.

Is Tor good for downloading?

So, it is safe to download file over Tor, at least about as safe as downloading them on a shared or public wireless network, for example but it is definitely not safe to open them and it will harm your anonymity.

How do I get into Tor?

The easiest way to access Tor is through the Tor Browser. You can download and install it for free. You might want to hide your Tor Browser download using a VPN and your existing browser's private/incognito mode. Based on Firefox, Tor Browser lets you surf both the clear web and dark web.

Can I be traced on Tor?

While Tor provides a much higher level of anonymity than a regular web browser, it's not 100% secure. Your location will be hidden and your traffic can't be tracked, but certain people can still see your browsing activity – at least part of it.
