Great points. I would definitely do something like this if my life were on the line, or I needed to leak something about my government, for example.

But the convenience of Tails persistence is really tempting. I can just unlock it with a really long master password, and have access to my SSH keys, passwords (Keepass), Electrum bitcoin wallet, packages, source code, etc.

But yes indeed, a live CD, a simple blog hosted on Wordpress or Tumblr, random MAC address, and Tor on coffee shop Wifi over a long-range antenna would provide almost guaranteed security.

P.S. It's no fun without stats. 25,000 page views is a success, I think! And $25 USD in bitcoin donations. Now I just need to work on anonymously converting or spending them.
