Yes. The Tor software is distributed under the Modified BSD license, and is reproduced below. The Vidalia software is distributed under the GPL v2. Privoxy is distributed under the GPL v2. “src/common/strlcat.c and src/common/strlcpy.c” by Todd C. Miller are licensed under the Modified BSD license. If you have Tor as a static binary with OpenSSL included, then you should know: “This product includes software developed by the OpenSSL Project for use in the OpenSSL Toolkit (http://www.openssl.org/)” The Tor software license is the Modified BSD, which is as follows: Copyright &copy 2001-2004, Roger Dingledine Copyright © 2004-2007, Roger Dingledine, Nick Mathewson Copyright © 2007-2008 The Tor Project, Inc.
