All:
FYI, the "Secure Open Source (SOS) Rewards Program" <
https://sos.dev/>
"financially rewards developers for enhancing the security of critical open source projects."
Examples of such work include "Software supply chain security improvements
including hardening CI/CD pipelines and distribution infrastructure...." and so on.
While there's no guarantees, I think sos.dev would look positively at proposals
to improve the security of Tails. If you're interested, please look at their website and
make some proposal(s).
Thanks!
