Tails (abbreviation of "The Amnesic Incognito Live System") is a Linux distribution that pays great attention to "privacy" and "invisibility". It is derived from Debian. It was designed to help users use the Internet anonymously and protect individuals to the utmost. privacy.
To achieve this goal, Tails uses the Tor network, making network traffic difficult to track. Tails is also pre-installed with some applications, including web browsers, IRC clients, mail clients, and instant messaging tools. They are all pre-configured with the concept of security and anonymized network traffic. Therefore, through Tails we can use the Internet "invisibly" without leaving any traces.
