TAILS clinic by Donna Metzlar

Donna will be available between 19:00 and 22:00 in the TechInc space to show and tell.

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 experience is with pc's, but would be good to try it on a Mac too.

One should have a little experience with computers, but a lot is not necessary.

Info

TAILS - Anonymity and Privacy for anyone, anywhere, anytime.

TAILS is a live operating system, ie you can start it on almost any computer from a DVD, USB stick, or SD card.
