""""" Tonga (Bridge Authority) Permanent Shutdown Notice 2016-07-16T01:06:25Z
Dear friends, Given recent events, it is no longer appropriate for me to materially contribute to the Tor Project either financially, as I have so generously throughout the years, nor by providing computing resources. This decision does not come lightly; I probably ran one of the first five nodes in the system and my involvement with Tor predates it being called "Tor" by many years. Nonetheless, I feel that I have no reasonable choice left within the bounds of ethics, but to announce the discontinuation of all Tor-related services hosted on every system under my control.
I wonder what triggered this. The Appelbaum mess? Board change? Probably some back story about one or both. Maybe it'll leak :)
