***********************
Setting up Tor on MacOS
***********************
First, you need to install the Tor proxy service to your system. This will require opening your Terminal.
To open your terminal, hold the command key ⌘ + spacebar. `Spotlight Search` will appear. Start typing "terminal" and select the program called `Terminal`.
Paste in the following commands and hit <Enter>.
.. code-block::
which brew || /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"
brew install tor
brew services start tor
When this completes, you should see something like:
.. code-block::
==> Successfully started `tor` (label: homebrew.mxcl.tor)
If you notice issues connecting to Tor websites, try restarting the Tor service. Open the terminal and run:
.. code-block::
brew services restart tor
After running this command, you should see something like:
.. code-block::
Stopping `tor`... (might take a while)
==> Successfully stopped `tor` (label: homebrew.mxcl.tor)
==> Successfully started `tor` (label: homebrew.mxcl.tor)
That's it! Your Mac is now setup to natively use Tor.
