New featuresAutomatic Tor bridgesYou can now learn about Tor bridges directly from the Tor Connectionassistant in Tails.Tor bridges are secret Tor relays that hide that you are connecting to Tor. Ifconnecting to Tor is blocked from where you are, you can use a bridge as yourfirst Tor relay to circumvent this censorship.In Tails 7.6, choose Connect to Tor automatically when opening TorConnection. If access to the Tor network is blocked, the bridge configurationscreen offers a new option called Ask for a Tor bridge based on yourregion.This feature uses the same technology as the connection assistant in TorBrowser outside of Tails, which was introduced in Tor Browser11.5 (July 2022).Tails downloads information about bridges that are most likely to work in yourregion from the Moat API of the Tor Project. To circumventcensorship, this connection is disguised as a connection to another websiteusing domain fronting.GNOME SecretsIn Tails 7.6, the Secrets passwordmanager replaces KeePassXC.Secrets has a simpler interface and is better integrated in the GNOMEdesktop.
