Tails, The Amnesic Incognito Live System, version 1.3, is out. Among the new features are:
- Electrum is an easy to use bitcoin wallet. You can use the Bitcoin Client persistence feature to store your Electrum configuration and wallet.
- The Tor Browser has additional operating system and data security. This security restricts reads and writes to a limited number of folders. Learn how to manipulate files with the new Tor Browser.
- The obfs4 pluggable transport is now available to connect to Tor bridges. Pluggable transports transform the Tor traffic between the client and the bridge to help disguise Tor traffic from censors.
- Keyringer lets you manage and share secrets using OpenPGP and Git from the command line.
One issue that the Tails team note specifically is that this release ships with NoScript version 2.6.9.14 instead of version 2.6.9.15, which is the version used in The Tor Project's own Tor Browser 4.0.4 release. Other issues can be found here.
The download page is here and the submitter reminds us all that, if we choose the BitTorrent download option, please seed afterwards to help other potential users to obtain a copy.
The security holes which affect Version 1.2.3 have been fixed.
