How to anonymize the programs from your terminal with torify

In the past I???ve posted an article about Anonymous browsing with Tor that can be useful when you use your favorite browser and you wish to stay anonymous thanks to the Tor software. Tor (short for The Onion Router) is a system intended to enable online anonymity. Tor client software directs internet traffic through a worldwide volunteer network of servers to conceal a user???s location or usage from anyone conducting network surveillance or traffic analysis. Using Tor makes it more difficult to trace Internet activity, including ???visits to Web sites, online posts, instant messages and other communication forms???, back to the user and is intended to protect users??? personal freedom, privacy, and ability to conduct confidential business by keeping their internet activities from being monitored. Today I want to show some simple uses of the command torify that can be used from the Linux terminal.
