Tails 4.24 Distribution Released

The specialized Tails 4.24 distribution (The Amnesic Incognito Live System) has been released. Tails is based on the Debian package base and is designed to provide anonymous internet access. Anonymity in Tails is ensured through the Tor system. By default, all connections except those routed through the Tor network are blocked by a packet filter. User data is encrypted when using the persistent storage mode, allowing data to be saved between sessions. The release is available as a 1.1 GB ISO image that can run in Live mode.

What’s New in Tails 4.24

• Transitioned to the Tor Browser 11 branch. The stable release of Tor Browser 11 is not yet available; instead, another test release, Tor Browser 11.0a10, has been published. This version is based on Firefox 91.3 ESR and the alpha version of Tor 0.4.7.2.
• The confirmation dialog that appears when attempting to reinstall the system on a USB drive with enabled Persistent Storage has been made more noticeable.
• Improvements have been made to the Tor Connection wizard, which allows users to connect from censored networks using bridge relays to bypass blocks.
• The time zone selection interface has been improved.
• CPU load has been reduced when displaying the update installation status.
