Tails 7.1 released
Tails 7.1 is out now. This is a big update to this portable operating system that protects against censorship and surveillance. Tails is dedicated to digital security, so users can surf the web without worrying about being watched or limited.
One of Tails' most important features is that it can protect users' privacy by using the Tor network. Users can stay anonymous online and avoid censorship by sending their traffic through this private network. This makes sure that people can get information without any problems, which is how it should be.
Another big plus for Tails is that it is portable. Users can start their secure system from a USB stick, which gets rid of any risks that might come up when starting on a new device or operating system. When you turn off Tails, it doesn't leave any traces on the computer, so users can be sure that their data is safe.
This safe operating system comes with a digital security toolbox that gives users access to several apps for working on sensitive documents and talking to each other safely. Users can focus on their work without worrying about possible security holes because all applications have safe defaults set.
You can download Tails for free. Because it is open source, independent security researchers can check the work that goes into this operating system. Tails is built on Debian GNU/Linux, which gives it a strong base that lets it stay up-to-date with the latest security patches and features.
One big change in the new version is that the home page of Tor Browser in Tails is now an offline page that looks like the one outside of Tails, instead of an online page from the website. The goal of this change is to make the user experience better and make things safer.
This update also improves the messages that show up when an administration password is needed but one wasn't set during the Welcome Screen. There are also updates for the Tor client (0.4.8.19) and the Tor Browser (14.5.8). The version of Thunderbird has also been changed to 140.3.0.
Tails 7.1 also removes the "ifupdown" package, which was previously considered unnecessary. The operating system now has fixes for a number of problems, such as hiding messages that could make people worry about Tor connections in new tabs of the Tor Browser.
This release boasts a lengthy changelog detailing numerous enhancements to the system's security and functionality. These updates show that Tails is still dedicated to giving users a safe and dependable operating system for their digital needs.
Overall, the most recent version of Tails 7.1 builds on its reputation as a safe and reliable operating system for people who want to protect their freedom and privacy online.
