PSA: Don't torrent over TOR (tor.stackexchange.com)
  1. It doesn't make you anonymous. Torrent protocol wasn't designed with anonymity in mind and there are a million ways you're going to leak your actual IP address.
  2. Tor is a TCP only network.
  3. While this doesn't give you the anonymity you wanted, it will hurt the network for other users.

Does TOR have some utility for the average tech people? Just curious I havent used it.

That's an old site though. So, you can find more information with another search.
