A free workshop. Open to both TechInc members and the public.
Donna will be available between 19:00 and 22:00 in the TechInc space to show people how to use TAILS and to discuss anonymity and privacy.
You can look over the shoulder and listen, or bring your own laptop and a USB stick, and start working with TAILS straight away.
Most of my experience is with pc's, but am happy to look at TAILS on a Mac too.
Participants should feel comfortable on their computers, but it is not necessay to have a lot of ICT knowledge and experience.
Info
The goal of using TAILS is to secure your own anonymity and privacy on the internet.
TAILS is a live operating system, ie you can start it on almost any computer from a DVD, USB stick, or SD card.
- TAILS stands for "The Amnesic Incognito Live System".
