● tor.service - Anonymizing overlay network for TCP (multi-instance-master)
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/tor.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: active (running) since Mon 2021-01-18 12:34:34 EST; 2min 41s ago
 Main PID: 8791 (tor)
    Tasks: 10 (limit: 4704)
   CGroup: /system.slice/tor.service
           └─8791 /usr/bin/tor -f /etc/tor/torrc


This indicates that the Tor service is running. You can now use the Tor network by configuring your web browser to use a SOCKS proxy running on localhost at port 9050.
