This would be possible through a novel mechanism that disregards any USB device that&#8217;s connected to your computer while the screen is locked. New USB devices would only work when the screen is unlocked.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>Yet another novel feature awaited in Tails 6.0 is the capacity to automatically mount external devices, in addition to prompting users to unlock the storage device if it harbors an encrypted partition.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><p>Thanks to the upgrade to the GNOME 43 desktop environment series, Tails 6.0 will also offer dark mode and Night Light features, as well as easier screenshots and screencasts with GNOME\u2019s built-in screenshot tool.<\/p>\n<p>Other than that, Tails 6.0 will come with an updated Persistent Storage feature that now generates suggested passphrases in Catalan, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish languages, and an updated Mozilla Thunderbird email client that offers easier configuration of Gmail accounts.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, most of the software included in Tails 6.0 will be updated to the latest versions from the Debian Bookworm repositories.
