I'm not sure what you mean with "ports". However, NSA doesn't control anything related to Tails to our knowledge, and we do what we can to defend against it, e.g.: https://tails.boum.org/news/reproducible_Tails/

and why are there closed codes in “tails”?

I guess you are referring to the firmwares required for hardware support? If we didn't ship these firmwares Tails would not run on most hardware. It's a necessary trade-off.

Cheers!
