VPN provides privacy not anonymity Tor provides anonymity ?

In terms of technologies that you can use to help ensure that you maintain good OPSEC, on the subject of VPN vs. TOR, a lot of people seem to have thought that VPNs provide anonymity; that’s not the case. VPNs provide privacy, TOR provides anonymity, so the difference is: privacy protects your data, anonymity protects you. Therefore if you are using a VPN service, you have to make sure that you’ve gone through TOR first, otherwise that VPN is simply a link from the end point to yourself. So, TOR to VPN – ok; VPN to TOR – go to jail.
