If you're using TAILS, or just interested in the technology, or even thinking about getting on board, here is some good news for you: the TAILS has opened an official public mailing list with archives. You can find the new mailing lists at tails-project@boum.org, which is a public, archived mailing-list to talk about the non-technical decisions regarding the project. In addition the page mentions two other new mailing lists, but they are not aimed directly at TAILS users, but for promotion and web/soft/UI. Click on the "mailing list" [1] link to browse the TAILS USERS Mailing List archives.

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

The post didn't describe what Tails actually is. One AC (not me) was kind enough to explain, and got nodded down as "redundant", even though it is currently the ONLY comment in the thread besides this one.

There is one (I hope just one) registered Pipedot user who does this all the time, downmodding ACs into invisibility because he doesn't like their opinion or their attitude.

He is to every rational interpretation a resident, registered troll, and he damages this site, which is often starved for good commentary.

Zafiro and Brian, I suggest you hunt down this miscreant and consider controlling him before he continues to hurt your site with short sighted flippancy.

Hmm - you're right. Since negatively modded things aren't shown at my threshold I didn't even see the post. Just modded it back up: informative.

Mod war - go!

Be glad this is the only problem we're faced with at the moment. Over at Soylent they've got one - or a couple of - jokers that are littering comment threads with obnoxious, "Fuck Soylent" posts reminicent of the "GNAA" - or whatever it was called - thing on Slashdot back in the day.

This is why we can't have nice things.
