Tails report for February 2023

Hi, Tails report for February 2023 <https://tails.boum.org/news/report_2023_02/> Highlights * @bokonon <https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/bokonon>joined our team, as our Fundraising Lead. bokonon will help us develop and grow our fundraising initiatives, to support the work we do to accomplish ourmission <https://tails.boum.org/contribute/mission/>. * We prepared usability tests planned in Ecuador in March. Releases Wereleased Tails 5.10 on February 16 <https://tails.boum.org/news/version_5.10/index.en.html>. As part of our focus on polishing user experience, Tails now asks for confirmation when starting without unlocking the Persistent Storage. Because we humans sometimes forget stuff. It's OK :) Tails 5.10 fixed a few problems introduced in Tails 5.8 in December, and some more: * Fixed another case of Persistent Storage not activating. (#19432 <https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/19432>) * Avoid opening the Persistent Storage settings each time after login. (#19410 <https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/19410>) * Solve a possible privilege escalation through a symlink attack. Metrics Tails has been started more than 652 918 times this month. This makes 23 318 boots a day on average.
