Everyone who uses internet is under the scanner of government and corporate giants. To certain people anonymity becomes a great deal. Like journalists, secret societies, special agents working on a mission a certain level of anonymity is needed. While there exists, some who use anonymity for malicious purposes and as shield to cover up for their crimes and to leave no trace behind their online criminal activity. Achieving anonymity is not easy as it may seem and specialized tools are needed to do that. One such tool is TOR. It works on onion routing and its basic principle is to add a level of encryption at every level and find routes that are not linked and leaves no trace behind.
