More About Orbot: Tor for Android

Orbot is a free VPN and proxy app that empowers other apps to use the internet more securely. Orbot uses Tor to encrypt your Internet traffic and then hides it by bouncing through a series of computers around the world. Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security known as traffic analysis.

Traffic Privacy is an application that provides the highest level of security and privacy for your internet traffic. It does this by encrypting your traffic and routing it through the Tor network, making it nearly impossible for anyone to snoop on your online activities. This means that no one, including your network operator or app servers, can see what apps you are using or when you are using them. Additionally, there is no central logging of your traffic history or IP address, ensuring complete anonymity.

Orbot is the only app that offers a truly private internet connection. It has been recognized by the New York Times for its ability to keep your communication completely anonymous. In fact, the Tor network, which Orbot uses, won the 2012 Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) Pioneer Award for its contributions to online privacy and security.

Orbot is the official Tor VPN for Android and is the only app that bounces your encrypted traffic through multiple computers around the world, rather than connecting you directly like traditional VPNs and proxies. This may take a little longer, but the level of privacy and identity protection it provides is well worth the wait.

Not only can Orbot be used for all of your apps, but it also offers a proxy feature for those that have it. This means that you can use Orbot with any installed app, including popular ones like Twitter, or for private web searching with DuckDuckGo.

Guardian Project, the developers behind Orbot, are committed to creating secure mobile apps and open-source code for a better tomorrow. They welcome feedback and encourage users to join the community to help improve the app. However, they also acknowledge that no technology is 100% foolproof and recommend that users follow best practices to ensure maximum security and anonymity. A good introductory guide to these topics can be found at https://securityinabox.org/.
