I 100% agree. That journalist basically crawled the Tor winter meeting notes wiki and asked me some questions via email. I wrote back after the story came out and told him that he went way overboard with both the headline and the projection.

What I was trying to do was promote how great TAILS is now, and how in our mobile work we seek to emulate it.
