Tails (operating system)

Tails is an operating system that is designed to help you make sure that your personal data stays private and secure when you use the internet. It's like a special type of computer that you carry around with you (on a USB stick or DVD), which you use to make sure that your activities online remain private and secure. Every time you turn on the computer, it starts up with a clean version of the operating system, which means that none of your personal data is saved when you turn off the computer. This helps to make sure that no one can track what you do online!
