    3131=== Onion Routing & Tor ===
    32 Another method of cloaking one's identity is through using a program called [https://www.torproject.org/ Tor].  Tor takes the proxy idea and expands it using the idea of onion routing.  Onion routing is an anonymity tool which uses multiple routers to hide web traffic from the sender to the server. The web data is encrypted using layers, with each layer being removed at the subsequent routers. This means that each router can only see two parts of the traffic, the preceding node and the next node. Therefore a compromised node would not lead to the identity of either person being revealed.
