About Tails
Tails boots from a USB stick, forces all network traffic through Tor, and forgets everything when it shuts down unless you deliberately create an encrypted persistent volume. It bundles a browser, mail client, messaging, office and metadata tools configured for anonymity.
Strengths
- Leaves no trace on the host machine and forces all traffic through Tor
- Bundles the anonymity and metadata tooling already configured
Limitations
- Protection depends on how you use it; logging into personal accounts defeats it
- Slow, and the live system cannot be updated in place while running
