This is why proofreading and research, especially on technology sites, is so important. Novices to the field will be taking this information at face value and then wondering why so many things they thought they had learned are wrong.

No matter how you run it, there always will be a record of the execution of the program. Plus the employer can block the execution of certain programs. Even if you use your own laptop, you still may not be able to run Tor since you would have to go through the company network.
