grapheneOsLover11111 So extra hardening like APP whitelisting and stuff or removing attack surface like Bluetooth or even better encryption for the cost oft longer boot times vor block protocolls only needed for games etc. Colud this be a usefull solution for peope who are at high need of security or are very security concious?
It is hard to design a system that is both secure for activists / journalist, while also usable, because you might need different apps and different features depending on what activism you are doing. I would not have any use for Bluetooth, so would be fine with all Bluetooth functionality being removed entirely, but it is not hard to imagine others that would benefit greatly from or even entirely depend on short range radio communication like Bluetooth to exchange files and data with other activists, to avoid leaving traces online. Likewise, I would be heavily reliant on Element as chat platform, as that is what all other activists in my area use, as well as most who we might need to talk to, including scientists and journalists working in our field. But if someone where to design a whitelist of applications, Element might not cut it, as many consider Signal a better choice in most use cases.
Even Tails have struggled like that, trying to make decisions that are suitable for as many as possible, but often falling short of providing everything one need. For example, Tails haven't provided Element support this far, or support for any other end-to-end encrypted messenger. And that limits the usability a lot.
grapheneOsLover11111 Wouldnt it provide some security if the system dosent let the user installiert any unknown or new apps that an exploit also cant installiert any Malware.
This is true. It would also prevent a less security conscious activist from being baited into installing and using a malicious app. I have unfortunately heard of many cases where activists have been baited into installing malicious software, and thus having all their activism exposed to the attacker, often a state actor. So whitelisting would provide benefits. Not for me, but for those that are less security conscious and might have a tendency to follow "security advise" from "trusted" community members.
So there would be benefits, but it is really hard to do right, as you cannot know what any specific individual would need beforehand.
