In 2023, Tails touched the lives of approximately 25 000 individuals daily, and will surpass a staggering 10 million uses. Over the years, Tails has become an invaluable ally for those on the front lines of truth-seeking and progressive political advocacy:
<b>Investigative journalists</b> have used Tails to securely unearth corruption and wrongdoing, without fear of reprisal. For example, journalists from PODER and Serendipia used Tails to investigate the systematic espionage of feminists and LGBTQIA+ groups by the Mexican army.
<b>Activists</b> have used Tails to organize and communicate with each other, even in repressive regimes. For example, reproductive rights activists in Brazil have used Tails to protect their work and personal data from intrusive law enforcement and boyfriends alike.
<b>Whistleblowers</b> have used Tails to expose wrongdoing without compromising their identities or endangering their sources. For example, Edward Snowden and his collaborators used Tails to expose the massive global surveillance programs orchestrated by the NSA and the Five Eyes intelligence alliance.
