The Tails Project and The Tor Project are merging to advance their product development efforts.
The Tor Project develops Tor, a network privacy technology that blocks attempts to eavesdrop on internet traffic.
The Tails Project develops Tails, a privacy-focused version of Linux, which utilizes Tor for network connections.
The merger will allow the Tails team to focus on maintaining and improving Tails OS while benefiting from the operational framework of The Tor Project.
