Thank you! This revealed to me that the current Tails.net <http://tails.net/> website doesn't include any information on how to safely get a good USB stick, or that this is important. There are a lot of counterfeits and low-quality sticks that could make Tails *appear* to work poorly. In addition, targeted users (such as journalists/reporters, democracy activists, missionaries) need to take additional precautions (they should NOT request sticks by mail), which isn't obvious. I propose that the Tails documentation include this information, since a good (or bad) USB stick will impact *everything*.
