I need this for political/activist purposes. When a public service blocks Tor, I want to be able to say that the public service marginalises/disservices ppl on some platforms.

My first thought was Qubes OS, because it can be setup as a Tor-only platform. The flaw of course is that users can configure it either way. So the public service would argue that it was the user’s choice to configure it to not use clearnet. If an OS were to operate purely on anonymous networks with no direct clearnet access, this would have some niche applications for activism.

      Sorry for the late reply. But for the record I must say Tails does not do what I want because Tails gives clearnet access. The UI discourages it, but the possibility is there to open a browser on clearnet.

      You may be right about Whonix… I have yet to tinker with it.

        Well then Whonix is what you want, it does guarantee that (without a VM sandbox escape) the workstation cannot access clearnet
