Funciona bien, se puede navegar, acceder a tus sitios con mayor seguridad y privacidad, pero como dije es lento debido a las capaz de protección que ofrece.

Pros

Buen navegador, brinda unas buenas capas de protección de navegación; dando seguridad al usuario para navegar y poder proteger sus datos.

Cons

Unos de los inconvenientes que encuentro con esta aplicación es su problema de velocidad para acceder a las páginas. Influye el hecho que presente varias capaz de protección pero me parece que deberían ver la forma de optimizar eso.

Loved it, can't deny that. When you need some freedom on the web Tor is where you want to be. Outstanding usability and accessibility. Two thumbs up.

Pros

Nothing's off limits. I was able to access every part of the web. It's amazing! The freedom of Tor is undeniably awesome.

Cons

The basic features, kinda make it boring. I didn't like how I had to, Retype everything when surfing. It also has security that I believe is just to much.

Tor is light, easy to use and has a great search engine.

Pros

Tor browser is free, easy to use and one of the safest browsers that will protect users online privacy without any third party antispyware or adblockers installed.

Cons

Tor can be slow when it comes to downloads due to how it routes traffic and may be illegal to install in other countries.

Utilizzo Tor Browser per fare ricerca e analisi alternativa, e anche per capire meglio il posizionamento organico di alcuni contenuti, non inquinati da tracciamenti e localizzazioni.

Pros

Mi piace di Tor Browser il fatto che rende possibile navigare in internet senza essere tracciati nelle proprie ricerche e potendo trovare anche informazioni più particolari che normalmente sarebbero oscurate o censurate.

Cons

Al momento non ne ho trovati, se non magari il fatto di dover fare più attenzione ai risultati trovati, perché spesso possono essere fraudolenti o illeciti.

Pros

the main advantage of this browser is that it's really secure, and it lets you access another form of Internet that's little known to the general public.

Cons

it should secure this form of internet to allow the vast majority to access another type of content
