Tails is easily the distro which surprised me the most. This is because, even tough I would rate myself a well aware privacy advocate, I didn’t expect to see a full suite of privacy tools. I somehow just expected, that it would be just the Tor Browser and nothing more. I don’t know what I thought tough. I need to mention, that Tails was one of my first distros I’ve used so I was kind of mindblown that all these tools could fit onto a USB Thumb drive.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
