Indeed physical access to the machine is what I was thinking about (simple
hypothetical threat: hardware key-logger in work environment or an internet
cafe). Such "tools" are quite cheap nowadays (~50$ off your favourite
online store).
I feel that, for someone who needs to securely store/access/transfer data and
is not tech-savvy (e.g.: a journalist), stating: "use a security-driven distro
(Tails, etc.) on secure hardware (your own machine or the machine of someone
you trust)" is concise, simple and comprehensive.
