Hello,

I’ve heard that Ubuntu may not fully prioritize user privacy and collects telemetry data. Could you please clarify:

Is this accurate? Are there Linux distributions that place a stronger emphasis on privacy?

Thank you 🙏🏼

    I was specifically responding to at the end where you say it is “super secure” at the end of your comment. It is not a security focused distro. It isnt even (only) a privacy distro. It is an anonymity distro. Fedora is private, but it doesnt store everything in RAM or route everything through Tor, so it isn’t amnesic or anonymity focused.

    When compared to Whonix (which is Debian based like Tails) or Secureblue (Fedora Atomic based), Tails doesnt do nearly anything to harden its base other than to strictly proxy the network through Tor, run in RAM, and some default apps.
