Tails Operating System and the Tor Network
Tails is an "amnesic" operating system that runs entirely from a USB drive and wipes all data from the computer's RAM upon shutdown. It routes all internet traffic through the Tor network, which masks the user's IP address through multiple global nodes. The Tor browser also helps obfuscate a user's unique digital fingerprint, making online tracking much more difficult.
