Résumé : Anonymizing overlay network for TCP (The onion router)

Description : Tor is a connection-based low-latency anonymous
: communication system.
:
: Applications connect to the local Tor proxy using the
: SOCKS protocol. The local proxy chooses a path through a
: set of relays, in which each relay knows its predecessor
: and successor, but no others. Traffic flowing down the
: circuit is unwrapped by a symmetric key at each relay,
: which reveals the downstream relay.
:
: Warnings: Tor does no protocol cleaning. That means there
: is a danger that application protocols and associated
: programs can be induced to reveal information about the
: initiator. Tor depends on Privoxy and similar protocol
: cleaners to solve this problem. This is alpha code, and is
: even more likely than released code to have
: anonymity-spoiling bugs. The present network is very small
: -- this further reduces the strength of the anonymity
: provided. Tor is not presently suitable for high-stakes
: anonymity.
