> Will you explain a bit more about this? I'm personally interested in conveying more clearly, to our users, the message that "plugging one's Tails device in an untrusted OS is dangerous" [1]. I think that detecting the presence of .DS_Store files and friends on a started Tails is a good trigger to educate the user a bit about it. It's easy to implement, and seems to be good enough, so any other proposal will need to be better. [1] https://mailman.boum.org/pipermail/tails-dev/2016-February/010251.html Detecting hidden partitions was also proposed back then, but I don't know what problem it is meant to address (and I don't see how it can help address the problem mentioned above), so I'm afraid I can't comment further on this topic with the info I currently have. > It could check the MBR partition table for any occupied bits. > But the specific thought was to check for extended partition entries. Here again: can you please describe what problem these proposals are tackling?
