"Tails is a live operating system, that you can start on almost any computer from a DVD, USB stick, or SD card. It aims at preserving your privacy and anonymity, and helps you to:

- use the Internet anonymously and circumvent censorship;
  all connections to the Internet are forced to go through the Tor
  network;
- leave no trace on the computer you are using unless you ask it
  explicitly;
- use state-of-the-art cryptographic tools to encrypt your files,
  emails and instant messaging."
