- cldellow 10y agoThe Register, in the tradition of British rags, uses somewhat hyperbolic/clickbaity headlines. You'll note that torpedoing isn't used in the copy, just the heading. I agree, though; for someone who (a) is a volunteer and (b) is doing it because he dislikes the direction of the organization, this is a remarkably civil disentangling.

- makomk 10y agoIt's the Register, they're a tabloid. Though giving one month's notice of shutting down a major and as far as I can tell unique part of the Tor infrastructure is pretty major.
