## TOR - The Onion Router

#### By Lee_Lammert

TOR, short for The Onion Router, is free and open-source software for enabling anonymous communication. It directs Internet traffic through a free, worldwide, volunteer overlay network, consisting of more than six thousand relays, to conceal a user's location and usage from anyone performing network surveillance or traffic analysis. Using TOR makes it more difficult to trace a user's Internet activity. TOR's intended use is to protect the personal privacy of its users, as well as their freedom and ability to communicate confidentially through IP address anonymity using TOR exit nodes.

MAIN@~7:15: "Building and maintaining a container” by Andrew Denner of CIAlug.

In this month's presentation Andrew Denner from Central Iowa Linux Users group will cover how to design, use, and update OCI Containers (aka docker containers) for custom local usage. He will start from the beginning answering questions like "what is a container", "why should your processes should be cattle instead of pets" (even with one machine), how can you use containers to simplify updates, and separate concerns. Also we will explore alternative tools to docker like podman and buildah.

Andrew Denner is a Senior Scientific Software Developer and President of the Central Iowa Linux Users group.
