We released 11 new versions of Tails to continue offering improvements and security fixes as soon as possible, including 4 emergency releases. This year we've faced critical security issues like Spectre, Meltdown, EFAIL, and issues in Firefox and are working hard to always have your back covered!
We grew our pool of regular contractors with 4 new workers, mostly to work on our core code and infrastructure. These include several very skilled Debian developers.
All of this is made possible by donations from people like you. And because they help us to plan our work, we particularly appreciate monthly and yearly donations, even the smallest ones.
