"Warning: non-free virtual machine detected!
Both the host operating system and the virtualization software are able to"

This seems unnecessarily alarmist.

Tails in a virtual machine is no different than... Tor browser according to
the message.
And Tor browser is offered for Windows 10.

I am very confused by this alarmism. Is there basis for this? Is bare metal
access for Tails more secure than virtual machine? Maybe if there was
previous physical access and the authenticity of the Tails OS can be
assumed to not have been altered on the USB or the DVD replaced.

Anyway, it is very interesting for thegrugq to emphasize Tor then VPN.
