Thanks for sharing your concerns regarding partitions vs containers. I think that they make a lot of sense and I didn't think about that in this way before. Still, I would need to mature that idea in my head before being sure that this is a desirable feature in the context of Tails. Because, for example, using containers imply have other unencrypted data on the same partition, right? So that would probably encourage mixing up data from different identities on the same disk. Then this data would be equally available to Tails (and its possible targeted attacks) and could deanonymise you. Of course, you can also do that with LUKS partitions... but what I want to say is that your idea that containers makes it easier to manipulate encrypted files for the user might actually make things more complicated conceptually in the context of Tails. -- sajolida _______________________________________________ Tails-dev mailing list Tails-dev@boum.org https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev To unsubscribe from this list, send an empty email to tails-dev-unsubscr...@boum.org.
