Onion Browser For iOS Private Browsing

OK, this is rather interesting. An app that provides private browsing on your iOS device. The Onion Browser for iOS private browsing provides, potentially, for a safe browsing experience in the event that your phone gets pinched by border agents.

From Lifehacker:

We’ve talked about ways to Tor in Chrome and Firefox before, and Onion Browser uses the same basic premise. It tunnels your browsing through a Tor proxy server so websites don’t see your IP address and it encrypts all of your information before it leaves your device. Loading pages in Onion Browser takes a lot longer than normal, but you’ll be completely anonymous when you’re doing it. Onion Browser is a 99¢ download for iPhone and iPad.

Please note that this isn’t an endorsement of this particular app as we have not had a chance to test it just yet.
