Has someone checked the warning page recently? We worked on it 6 months
ago, and it starts with "Tails does not protect against compromised
hardware", then "Tails can be compromised if installed or plugged in
untrusted systems" and "Tails does not protect against BIOS or firmware
attacks". So I think you're all proposing to add things that are already
there, no?
