The Amnesic Incognito Live System

Tails è una distribuzione Linux live basata su Debian e Gnome che ha l’obbiettivo di garantire la privacy e l’anonimato in rete. Questo viene raggiunto tramite l’utilizzo di Tor per tutte le connessioni uscenti e i dati non vengono salvati su disco (tranne se abilitato).

Versione 2.0

Questa versione contiene (in Inglese):

Upgrades and changes

• Debian 8 upgrades most included software, for example:
  • Many core GNOME utilities from 3.4 to 3.14: Files, Disks, Videos, etc.
  • LibreOffice from 3.5 to 4.3
  • PiTiVi from 0.15 to 0.93
  • Git from 1.7.10 to 2.1.4
  • Poedit from 1.5.4 to 1.6.10
  • Liferea from 1.8.6 to 1.10
• Update Tor Browser to 5.5 (based on Firefox 38.6.0 ESR):
  • Add Japanese support.
• Remove the Windows camouflage which is currently broken in GNOME Shell. We started working on adding it back but your help is needed!
• Change to systemd as init system and use it to:
  • Sandbox many services using Linux namespaces and make them harder to exploit.
  • Make the launching of Tor and the memory wipe on shutdown more robust.
  • Sanitize our code base by replacing many custom scripts.
• Update most firmware packages which might improve hardware compatibility.
• Notify the user if Tails is running from a non-free virtualization software.
• Remove Claws Mail, replaced by Icedove, a rebranded version of Mozilla Thunderbird.
