Tails 6.9 Distribution Released

The release of the specialized distribution Tails 6.9 (The Amnesic Incognito Live System), developed as part of the Tor project, has been presented. This distribution is based on the DEBIAN 12 package base, features the GNOME 43 desktop, and is specifically designed for anonymous access to the network using Tor tools. By default, all connections except traffic via the Tor network are blocked by the packet filter. User data is encrypted for storage between launches to ensure privacy. The ISO-image for download is 1 GB and capable of running in live-mode. More information can be found here.

Updates in the new version include the Tor Browser 14.0.1, Tor 0.4.8.13 tools, and the mail client Thunderbird 115.16.0. An issue with automatic updates installation, which previously caused errors preventing updates from loading, has been resolved. For more details on the updates, click here.
