Tor: An anonymous Internet communication system

If you are ever doing anything on the internet and do not want people to be able to track who you are sending info to or getting info from you can use this:
Tor: An anonymous Internet communication system

For a good list of reasons to use it see the website. For those who want to do file sharing with it the problem is that it is fairly slow so it's not really a good way to do that. Remember it will only stop someone from knowing where your packets are going - it will not stop someone from knowing what they contain - so if it is sensitive information you still need to make sure that the communication is encrypted.
