Thanks. Using Tails on Virtualbox 6.1.26 (Ubuntu Studio 21.04 host) as a container for email and web access. Minimal privacy or security concerns but mainly to minimize malware or trackers (more of a concern when used Windows host).
Confimations:
- The bridges are properly saved to and restored from Persistent Storage when the Tor Bridges feature is enabled.
- Tails successfully connects to Tor using bridges when the correct time zone and clock are set from within Tor Connection assistant.
Issues:
- Browser extension such as Bitwarden does not persist. Have to use a script to restore prefs.js, extensions.json, and extension file from /Dotfiles/.tor-browser/profile.default to /home/amnesia/.tor-browser/profile.default after connecting to bridge. Tor Connection assistant and Tor initializing might be overwriting persist files from the Dotfiles folder during startup. Have to then manually make it visible.
- Noscript browser extension was visible on the toolbar but does not persist. Have to manually make it visible.
- Bookmarks persist feature does not work. Have to use a script to restore Bookmarks file from /Dotfiles/.tor-browser/profile.default to /home/amnesia/.tor-browser/profile.default after connecting to bridge. Script should also delete /home/amnesia/.mozilla folder in case of conflicts with items dynamically created in /home/amnesia/.tor-browser folder.
- Browser bookmarks was visible on the toolbar but does not persist. Have to manually make it visible.
- Browser Mozilla dark theme does not persist.
- Time zone setting does not persist.
