Sorry, I'm not familiar with Tails, what's the implication?

Tails is a privacy Linux version that runs from memory, and when you shut the computer down, everything you’ve done is gone. It comes stock with Tor, which you can use to access onion sites (the dark web.)

There’s only one kind of porn people have to go to the dark web for :c

Makes sense. I usually think of tor as a tool to get around government censorship, especially in countries where internet usage is strictly regulated, but of course that's a double-edged sword.
