Hi Lee,

Not really: for a network adversary on the LAN, currently Tails
behaves in a way that's quite distinguishable, at least in some cases.

Still, not being able to be perfect on the short term does not mean we
should not go after the low-hanging fruits :)

Two questions:

* What version of Tor Browser is this?
* Is this the case with Tails 2.0~beta1 as well?

I suspect this might have something to do with the oldish distro Tor
Browser is built on:
