tor

totproject.org
Tor = implimentation of the ==onion protocol==
decentralized protocol
jan 2023 : ca 6000 nodes
created by US military for secure communications , is open source

2 use cases :
- access tor (hidden) services = webservices
=> you do not access internet = no exit , only entry in the onion network
- access ‘normal’ internet through tor / onion = entry and exit of tor nodes
monitortring of entry/exist nodes with pattern detetcing software can trace back to you

darkweb = https
darknet = all net traffic

tor browser = https , web only

tor routing : all network traffic not just https goes over tor network
you need software or hardware for that : install (?tails?) on a rasp pi or use something like a brax router
