TAILS on your phone?!

A major new player is about to enter the mobile phone space. But ideally, you won't even know they're there.

The team behind Tor, the world's leading online anonymity service, is developing an anonymous smartphone operating system.

[...]

To make truly hide your identity on mobile, Tor is adapting the leading anonymous operating system for PCs, The Amnesic Incognito Live System (TAILS). It works by forcing all outgoing connections through the encrypted Tor network and blocking all non-anonymous connections. All of the applications included in the free downloadable system--for instance, a secure browser and various encryption tools--are aimed to provide strong anonymity to the user.

OK. In theory (aka: has yet to yield proven safe results) one could run cyanogen mod, run orbot in root mode, also run the alpha version of I2P.apk, run Firefox, a text editor, APG+K9 can be integrated together, encrypt the device, keepass , a secure chat bot, and a VPN access. The only thing this system is missing is the ram wipe at system shutdown. Buying a galaxy S2 for cheap, and doing this would make this a very viable option for many.

Anyways: as far as now, the computer is far securer and superior for darknet services. This phone thing will not catch on for a while....
