Orbot was a module for Android that made the actual connection to the Tor network while Orfox was the browser, based on Android, which allowed to send and receive data on the Tor network. Furthermore, Tor Browser automatically activates the use of the HTTPS protocol wherever possible (thanks to the HTTPS Everywhere extension ) and makes use of NoScript so as to block the loading of JavaScript code on websites, in whole or in certain circumstances. Tor Browser has been a completely independent program on the desktop for some time: it uses an optimized and widely customized version of Firefox which, relying on the Tor network, allows you to appear on third-party websites with a completely different public IP (even from another country) than the one assigned by the chosen Internet provider.
The app’s functioning is illustrated in our article Tor Browser, what it is and how it works the new version of the program to which we suggest you refer.
