Our repo's README.md should point to our INSTALL.md for installation
instructions, and not the other way around. This fixes an issue with
INSTALL.md pointing to a stale README.md version. Updating our README
before tagging is not possible, since the latest version is the one that
our users visit, and it can't point to download links that do not exist.
Fixes#1003
This wraps the existing container image inside a gVisor-based sandbox.
gVisor is an open-source OCI-compliant container runtime.
It is a userspace reimplementation of the Linux kernel in a
memory-safe language.
It works by creating a sandboxed environment in which regular Linux
applications run, but their system calls are intercepted by gVisor.
gVisor then redirects these system calls and reinterprets them in
its own kernel. This means the host Linux kernel is isolated
from the sandboxed application, thereby providing protection against
Linux container escape attacks.
It also uses `seccomp-bpf` to provide a secondary layer of defense
against container escapes. Even if its userspace kernel gets
compromised, attackers would have to additionally have a Linux
container escape vector, and that exploit would have to fit within
the restricted `seccomp-bpf` rules that gVisor adds on itself.

Dangezone has received a security audit in December 2023, and published
on February 2024. It would be nice for people seeing this project to
learn about this audit.
Add some articles about the Dangerzone project that may be useful for
those evaluating this tool. This article list is not complete, and has
been sampled from various links we have encountered in the past.
Accept `.svg` and `.bmp` files when browsing via the Dangerzone GUI.
Support for these extensions has already been added in the converter
code that runs in the sandbox (cd99122385)
but they were erroneously left out from the filter in the Dangerzone
main window.
This PR reverts the patch that disables HWP / HWPX conversion on MacOS M1.
It does not fix conversion on Qubes OS (#494).
Previously, HWP / HWPX conversion didn't work on MacOS (Apple silicon CPU) (#498)
because libreoffice wasn't built with Java support on Alpine Linux for ARM (aarch64).
Gratefully, the Alpine team has enabled Java support on the aarch64
system [1], so we can enable it again for ARM architectures.
And this patch is included in Alpine 3.19
This commit was included in #541 and reverted on #562 due to a stability issue.

Makes it clear that one needs to install Docker for Desktop to use Dangerzone
on Mac or Windows and Podman on linux. The app itself will warn the user about
this, but we should state the prerequisites more clearly upfront.
Mentions mac and windows in INSTALL.md so that anyone reading this page does
not wrongly assume that Dangerzone is a Linux-only app.
Fixes#475
The HWP / HWPX conversion feature does not work on the following
platforms:
* MacOS with Apple Silicon CPU
* Native Qubes OS
For this reason, we need to:
1. Disable it on the GUI side, by not allowing the user to select these
files.
2. Throw an error on the isolation provider side, in case the user
directly attempts to convert the file (either through CLI or via
"Open With").

A workaround to an issue related to SIP imposed on Docker has been identified in #371. Update README.md to include friendly instructions for MacOS 11+ users blocked by this issue.
This release brings a split in the MacOS binaries, since we now have
separate ones for Intel and Apple Silicon architectures, so we must
reflect this in the README as well.
Update several references to First Look Media in the code, to better
reflect the current status, where Freedom of the Press Foundation has
taken over the stewardship of the project.
Fixes#343
Replace references to github.com/firstlookmedia with
github.com/freedomofpress, since the ownership of these repos has been
transferred to the Freedom of the Press Foundation.
Copy installation instructions from the Dangerzone wiki [1] into the
Dangerzone source. This has several benefits:
1. Devs can update installation instructions as part of a PR.
2. Users can see installation instructions for previous releases.
The last point is important, because we can update our instructions in
the main branch, without affecting the instructions a user follows from
the website (currently pointing to the Dangerzone Wiki).
