What is a Saturday Night Special? A gun you don’t mind putting a body on that is not going to hurt your feelings to chunk off of a bridge. Tails is a cheap portable OS that you don’t mind putting a body on and ripping out of your box and chunking off a bridge. Both are valuable in their own way. Cheap anonymous tool that can level the playing field for a schmuck.

Alot of assumptions being made. Not saying the points about loading from a workstation or internet cafe arent legit. But the people you are referring to, logging into twitter from tor after loading tails, are either too naive to be of any harm, or have no idea what they are doing.

I agree that Microsoft is a power-hungry unethical company. I am NOT having an easy time with Linux, but it is worth it if it means leaving that abusive Microsoft.
