Safeplug: Internet Privacy for Computers with Tor

Tor should not need any introduction to those of you who have studied how to keep your privacy online. Thanks to Safeplug, you can now use the power of Tor to hide your identity from websites. The installation process is easy. Just plug your Safeplug into your router, activate the device, and you are set. This works for smartphones and computers. Here is how it works:

Safeplug uses the Tor network to secure your Internet connection. Tor works by routing your Internet traffic through a series of random destinations, much like driving a twisty, complicated route to throw off someone who is following you, making it impossible for websites and organizations to identify the source or destination of Internet traffic…. While using Safeplug, websites you visit cannot store information that identifies you on their servers where it is vulnerable to be accessed by the site’s owners, or hacked by malicious attackers.

This interesting device is available for $49 at the time of this writing.
