Normally, when you pull out the USB, emergency shutdown is activated.
That means, that your RAM should be cleared and the machine should be
shut down. However, with the latest Tails releases there were some
apparent problems clearing the RAM and some machines failed to continue
to shutdown due to a kernel panic.

In that case, you need to manually push your power button and wait for
the computer to shut down.

We are working on a long term solution for this. I think this should be
available in the upcoming Tails 3.0 release - hopefully.

When you connect to the Internet with Tails, tor will automatically
start. Then you just need to open Tor Browser and - there you go.
