(I haven't tried it yet, but you could probably get Tails running in a VirtualBox with persistent storage as long as you're booting the VM off of a real physical USB stick.) SecureDrop also depends on hidden services. To see a good overview of how the hidden services and Tails end up working in practice, see: https://github.com/freedomofpress/securedrop/blob/master/docs/user_manual.md -- Micah Lee @micahflee
