Install TOR Browser On RHEL 6 / CentOS 6 / Fedora 20

Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security.

The Tor Browser Bundle lets you use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser to protect your anonymity, and is self-contained.

In this Tutorial I will tell you how to install TOR Browser on redhat 6.X / CentOS 6.X & Fedora 20 using YUM
