Jurre,
Thanks for the quick reply. Technically, this is more of a feature than
a bug. I actually emailed the Tails-bugs email address about the
Electrum SPV vulnerability and they said that they like to focus on
problems with Tails specifically, not software built on top of Tails.
Also, yes, I would love to help Tails. That is why I have been emailing
about Electrum. However, I can only contribute “documentation” about
how bitcoin works and propose solutions to problems. Someone else would
need to write the code.
