Hey! I don't want to be watched constantly so I decided to get tails OS on my old macbook from 2015. However, I can't get wifi on it and apparently it's because Linux doesn't have the drivers? I installed them on tails, but I haven't found a way to make them persistent. Is there any way to do this?

I had to look it up, but you simply have to add the kernel modules to/etc/modules to make them load at boot. Modprobe does not install them so that they work after a reboot.

Thank you for the quality reply! Do you think it's possible to do without having WiFi on Tails itself? I do have WiFi on MacOS (I dual boot for now)

Just plug it in to the router while you do it if it has Ethernet port

USB tethering from phone and a USB ethernet adapter are also options. I mean, it's a Macbook. Dongles and docks are commonplace.

I have a Mac, I most of the time have to put the OS in a VM because I can't get it to work properly on the "bare metal". You can VMware or VirtualBox and set up the internet connection the way you want it.
