Subject: [Tails-dev] BitTorrent download section in website
Hi all,

some days ago a friend contacted me as she was a bit confused with
torrent downloading section in https://tails.boum.org/download/index.en.html

User was not able to fully understand the "Additionally, you can verify
the signature of the Torrent file itself before downloading it."
wondering how one can verify something before downloading it.

Obviously the "it" refers to the "Torrent" in the previous sentence,
meaning the ISO and the sig.

I know this is a tiny issue but maybe referring explicitly to the ISO
would help?

or perhaps the (torrent) content is more accurate?
