Episode 104 - Tools, Tips and Tricks - Mr. Whoer

In this week's TTT episode I talk about a website called Mr. Whoer. This should be part of your bookmarks and used regularly. Mr. Whoer provides you with all the information about you and your system. It's handy for testing network connections, verifying your anonymizers are working properly and what people can see about your computer.
