This is definitely the case, but I wonder why companies don't add a button, such as "Access website without support", that would get you to the site while clearly telling you that any technical problems (of which, in 99% of cases, there will be none, since all of this seems like supporting Google internet dominance) will be ignored by support.

Your phone cannot be used as a USB by itself. Both the phone and the computer must have an OS running on them already to utilize the MTP protocol, which allows you to transfer files between them.

Edit: A possible approach:

Warning, this is not secure and kind of defeats the point of Tails!

In this scenario, the only way to boot Tails from a phone would be to first boot a different OS on the computer, plug the phone in and mount it using the MTP protocol, then boot a virtual machine image stored on the phone with QEMU or similar.

Please elaborate

I swear there is an XKCD for that

Noob. I prefer to use a screwdriver to poke around the CPU and memory lanes

Are you talking about speed or the amount of data you can transfer? If the speed is unlimited then oh boy, gonna move to Mexico :)

Didn't think about that. Thanks for pointing it out!

Very good solution. However, what benefit does the user get by formatting the drive every time a new game is to be installed? I mean, the thing already doesn't have internet access and no important data is on the drive anyway. Am I missing something?

That's more like "TerribleTerrible"

Or the personal information they gather

What are you going to wrap the last blade in if you forget to buy new ones?

Agreed, but I am more of a "Shift + I" kind of guy
