TAILS Linux 1.3.2 is out (March 31, 2015)

# Tails is a live system that aims to preserve your privacy and anonymity.
It helps you to use the Internet anonymously and circumvent censorship almost
anywhere you go and on any computer but leaving no trace unless you ask it to
explicitly.

# It is a complete operating system designed to be used from a DVD, USB stick, or SD
card independently of the computer's original operating system. It is Free Software
and based on Debian GNU/Linux.

# Tails comes with several built-in applications pre-configured with security in
mind: web browser, instant messaging client, email client, office suite, image and
sound editor, etc. - https://tails.boum.org/about/index.en.html

# Tails, The Amnesic Incognito Live System, version 1.3.2, is out.

  - Upgrade OpenSSL to 1.0.1e-2+deb7u16.

* Bugfixes
- Make Florence usable with touchpads by forcing syndaemon to
 always use the `-t` option, which only disables tapping and
 scrolling and not mouse movements (Closes: #9011).
- Make tails-spoof-mac log the correct macchanger exit code on
  failure (Closes: #8687).

  Â· Ignore devices with less than 3.5 GB of storage since they

  Â· Remove devices from the device list as they are unplugged
  (Closes: #8691).

* Minor improvements

  client-mode ScrambleSuit.
- Don't start Vidalia if Windows Camouflage is enabled. (Closes:
  #7400)
- I2P Browser:
  Â· Remove "Add-ons" from the Tools menu, and hide "Keyboard
  Shortcuts" and "Take a Tour" since they point to resources on
  the open Internet (Closes: #7970).
  Â· Hide TorButton button from the customize toolbar options, and
  remove configs whose only purpose was to make Torbutton "green"
