    So, I just want to say how interesting this is. I am a Human Services major, studying to be a counselor. I don't know why or how I ended up stumbling on this particular video, but I couldn't stop watching it. The information genuinely piqued my interest. Perhaps it is a new way of learning? Anyways, thank you so much for sharing.

I know so many have already have already commented, but I too was blown away by your video I had to leave a comment too. You have a gift for teaching. I literally was not bored at all unlike other videos that I have seen on this topic. The animations helps to keep the video engaging. Bravo! Thank you for your channel.

    Perhaps one of the best intro tutorials for Linux on a live session I have seen. I was initially going to comment 'but this is no different than Ubuntu or Mint etc. in a live session' then you covered 8:10 the RAM degradation and possible recovery. The wiping of Tails is clever. As is the pulling of the USB key. 👍

    I think I have run into one of the most intelligent channels on yt! Second video of yours I have watched. I have never tried Tails, got Ubuntu on dual boot, triple boot machines, but Tails appears to be by far, the best Linux os there is as far as privacy and security goes. Why is there not billions of people flocking to this video in search of relief from the tyranny and spying that has taken over? Why are they so unconcerned or unaware? Yes, I am going to create a usb boot drive with Tails. For those who have not booted from usb, it is easy to create usb drive, and a lot easier than you could imagine to set your computer bios to boot from usb. That how to should be on the playlist referenced in the video,.. Go For It!!

    I see a couple of issues with Tails. If your flashdrive becomes corrupted as some do, you're screwed. There should be an option to have a backup flashdrive just in case one goes belly up. The other issue is if you lose it. In the video it shows a guys putting the flashdrive in the "coin Pocket" of his Levi's. I wouldn't call that very smart as it could come out and get lost.

      What's the issue? You literally lose nothing unless if you kept files in Persistence. I'd rather store these files in an open source secure cloud service or an encrypted email account that tails offer to avoid losing all my work if anything happens to the usb

    Great video series, very well done. I have questions. Couldn't the security, and safety, of a Tails OS session be compromised if the firmware of the "Tails possessed system" is compromised? I've watched the entire Infosec series and watching again now but just trying to pick apart any possible vulnerabilities. Albeit I'm not a tech guru by any strecth but am more tech savvy than many and just want to find a way to ensure as best as possible that the device I use to run Tails and Tor isn't compromised prior to running any live session. I understand the basic jist of the Tails firewall when using Tor only allows for communications over the Tor network but if some certain malware exists in firmware on the host system before the OS even boots wouldn't that allow certain malwares to then just communciate across the Tor network to "own" a user's live OS session?

    I’ve been using live operating systems like a Ubuntu for years, I’ve even been able to use it to track down viruses on my windows computer, or organize the hard drives in ways that I could not from inside windows. I have malware one time as a teenager that would not allow me to delete it due to administrative privileges or something, from the live operating system I was able to delete all of the files and break the virus from being functional. I would say anybody running windows should have a live operating system. They are amazing. Tales is great for security, by using the power of Linux you can do amazing things. Did your windows installation crash into an unbootable state? Use a live CD to recover your data And reformat the hard drive without losing your homework. I’ve actually made money off of that kind of stuff.

      There's some strange info in this like the claim that microsoft is spying with key loggers, i think it's probably not microsoft but a third party rat that has made it's way onto the operating system. Not many people are 'security focused' and some who are have progressed far beyond this and are probably getting into stacking TOR with VPN's, heavy encryption, staying far away from Facebook and Facebook people, preventing wifi triangulation, and making their own customized linux os stack built from the ground up so that they know they're not getting double crossed by tails or some other weak link in their security chain including malware that third parties may try to add in after the fact.

      You seem to have not understood anything he said, nor do you understand why Tails is used. It's precisely the fact that it's "USELESS" that makes it so valuable because if someone else gets their hands on your drive they won't be able to do anything with it. This is why AMNESIC is in the acronym TAILS.

    • @FauxFox105
      @FauxFox105 3 года назад +3

      @@Curkri The only reason to use a VPN with TOR is if you’re not using TAILS and want to hide the fact that you’re using TOR from your ISP. If you want to hide the fact that you are using Tor from your ISP, then you can select the "More Options" button on the Tails greeting screen and then select the Option "This computer's Internet connection is censored, filter or proxied". However if you are not living under an oppressive regime in which it is illegal or not possible to use Tor normally, it is not recommended to use that options since it only takes away resources from people who really need it.
      If anything VPNs make the situation worse since they basically introduce either a permanent entry guard (if the VPN is set up before Tor) or a permanent exit node (if the VPN is accessed through Tor). A lot of people make the mistake of assuming that more hops is just better, and adds another layer of security, but that’s just not true.
      Basically by using a VPN you’re compromising your security because you’re still trusting the VPN company with your internet activity.

      I mean it's meant to be used as a boot disk primarily rather than as an installed OS.
      If you are using a USB Flash Drive to boot Tails, then there are only 2 possible reasons that you are unable to boot.
      1. Your BIOS hasn't been configured properly, likely you have disabled booting disk images or you have IOS prioritized over USB.
      2. You haven't properly mounted the .ISO image file onto your USB Flash Drive; double check that.

      @@-muhammadturk7196 now i stumbled upon this video it's late but if you still need any answer let me explain,
      Pre-2008 computers do not have Intel management engine or other firmware "security features", Other than that, ibm thinkpad x200 T500 etc. Models also have the privilege to flash the bios where we can remove these features. Now let's see why this is important and necessary for security;
      Intel management engine is a closed source program that has been used since 2008 to ensure the "security" of the device by managing computer systems from hardware and lower layers. You may have noticed that I used " here for security purposes. In recent years, Intel has begun to gain more control over these applications and put more software into its processors. This is how they can collect the traffic of the devices, all their movements and fingerprints, which has become quite a serious problem for people who are concerned about their security. You may think that Tails provides security and uses Tor, but I have to clarify. Intel me runs on the hardware of the device, so no matter what operating system we have, it will not be a problem for them. So, can we delete it? Work has been done on this, but it may block me up to a point, it may not work, or it may break the system. obviously older computers become a better option for this, So who cares so much about security? Many people doing illegal business on the Internet need this kind of privacy, But in a way, the guys who actually do things to the point of being watched by Intel me have the ability to do anything to get rid of it, Are you saying you need that much security? Well people who care so much about security can't be here but you see, We are here now on youtube, we probably used e-mail when entering here, We have social media, We can ask such questions to anyone. And nobody cares what we do
      But from the other side, no one has to do illegal work to demand privacy and freedom. We are the people, we are the citizens, Our own personal information and what we do should not belong to 3rd parties, Freedom should be the goal of everyone, not a particular audience. Thanks and regards for your question.
