* Free anonymising browser debuts * Cyber rights hacking group creates browser that makes it possible to surf the net anonymously. Web users worried about privacy can now use a modified version of Firefox that lets them browse the net anonymously. The Torpark browser has been created by a hacking group and uses technology backed by digital rights group the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Torpark uses its own network of net routers to anonymise the traffic people generate when they browse the web. The browser can be put on a flash memory stick so users can turn any PC into an anonymous terminal.
