The Amnesic Incognito Live System (Tails) is a Debian-based live CD/USB with the goal of providing complete Internet anonymity for the user. The product ships with several Internet applications, including web browser, IRC client, mail client and instant messenger, all pre-configured with security in mind and with all traffic anonymised. To achieve this, Incognito uses the Tor network to make Internet traffic very hard to trace.
Version 4.15 of Tails (The Amnesic Incognito Live System), a Debian-based live image designed for anonymous browsing of internet websites, has been released. As usual, the new version fixes a handful of security issues: "Tails 4.15 is out. This release fixes known security vulnerabilities. You should upgrade as soon as possible. New features: add a Dont Show Again button to the security notification when starting Tails in a virtual machine. Changes and updates: update Tor Browser to 10.0.9; update Thunderbird to 78.6.0; update Linux kernel to 5.9.15 - this should improve the support for newer hardware (graphics, Wi-Fi). Fixed problems: fix support for the Ledger hardware wallets in Electrum; fix sharing mobile data, also called USB tethering, on iOS 14 or later; clarify the error message when starting from a USB stick that is too small.
