So I just got and started using Tor, and'uh... what's it do?
 I meant, I know it distributes my connection through a series of random relay points to establish anonymity online, but like... I s'pose a better question would be, how do I know it's working? Timbo --------------------  |

tor's picked up a lot of speed, especially since that scatterchat or whatever launched a few days ago. it's recieved an influx of something like a couple hundred thousand new users, maybe more.
be warned though, tor isn't invincible. a measly java applet can get your pc to disclose it's actual ip addy, not to mention sites like slashdot will see through it and ban you at your real IP. -------------------- WAIT. I'm not finished.
