Pros
Pro Provides anonymity
Tor Browser routes traffic through the Tor network and deletes all privacy sensitive information (such as the browsing history or cookies) at the end of each session. Additionally, it encrypts all traffic.
Pro Tor sets the standard for safe and private browsing
If you follow their instructions religiously, Tor is the nec plus ultra in terms of safety and privacy. For the time being at least.
Pro The only browser package which includes a gateway build in into TOR a network where you can actually browse the web with completly anonymous or at least to whatever you browse on it
Privacy. It's fundamental. And this browser has enabled and keeps enabling people to lookup things they don't want their ISP/ government or surveillance marketers to see.
And what's better they won't know a thing about what you searched.
What is visible to the outside world however is the fact: you make use of TOR and probably the TOR Browser this client / citizen of ours is using TOR to obfuscate his /her traffic (=~anonymize ).
