PureBrowser with Tor}
Setup your PureBrowser to access Tor network
---
1. Start //Tilix// and enable and start the //**tor**// daemon:
{icon terminal}`sudo systemctl start tor.service`
If you don't have it installed, install it:
{icon terminal}`sudo apt install tor`
and start it again:
{F151828, size=full, alt=torpb1}
NOTE: You can also enable the service to start each time your system starts: {icon terminal}`sudo systemctl enable tor.service`
2. Now start the //PureBrowser// and open its Preferences:
{F151830, size=full, alt=torpb2}
3. Under the //General// tab find //Network proxy// settings:
{F151832, size=full, alt=torpb3}
4. Setup as shown:
{F151836, size=full, alt=torpb4}
5. Close the settings and open https://check.torproject.org/ to see if you have access to the Tor network:
{F151839, size=full, alt=torpb5}
WARNING: Due to the practice of //browser fingerprinting//, Tor authors strongly suggest that you [[PureOS/Tips/TorBrowser | use TorBrowser]] which mitigates this.
