I believe such an adversary has plenty of other ways of finding out you're using Tails. I don't think it's part of Tails threat model to protect against this kind of adversaries. If you're interested to dig further into what exact kind of resources is needed to achieve this attack, then I'm happy to think of it more thoroughly. > Second I don't like that when I choose a new identity my clipboard is > reset. If there is no good reason for that would you consider changing it? Interesting, I wasn't aware of that. I'll let someone else reproduce and look in the Tor Browser design doc for a justification.
