I've used it to explore and find resources from the Dark Network (or Darknet) as a way to understand what it is and what they do on the forums. Technically the number one issue is most likely gonna be the problem setting up a new password, since I am not sure if I am the only one here experiencing this, but it kinda freaze's when I try to input the new password, or even the current password (Which I am quite surprised, really). I am not sure if its a bug or anything else really, also (Unrelated to Whonix but they are also based out of Kicksecure) it kinda happens the same way as KickSecure (ISO and the qcow2) so, there should be a proper bug fix to this, since in the past it kinda worked fine changing passwords (According to the older videos) but I now its becoming an issue if there is a attack inside of the Virtual Machine (In the use of Virt-Manager). That is all I can say for now. Overall: Best and great alternative solution to Tails OS (Due to Clearnet traffic being the prime issue as it isn't designed like that) as it has the clearnet traffic prevention feature, compared to Tails OS and Whonix, Whonix is the best choice of them all. Also, best and easy set up for VirtualBox, but also kinda easy setup for the Virt-Manager (KVM). Recommend? Yes! Alternative to Tails OS? Yes! That is all for now. Was this review helpful?
