Tails 3.9 Anonymous OS Is Coming September 5 with TrueCrypt & VeraCrypt Support

That’s right, we’re talking about Tails 3.9, which is currently in development with a Release Candidate ready for public testing as we speak. As we reported a few weeks ago, Tails devs planned on implementing support for opening VeraCrypt encrypted drives in the GNOME desktop environment that’s used by default in Tails.

Moreover, this release will integrate the “Additional Software Packages” feature into the desktop.
