A lot of support should be lent right now to the city managers, library board, and the community. You don't want the first one to be publicly quashed by a bunch of shameful LEA fearmongering. Show up the board meeting, you can bet they will.

From what I hear the library is getting some considerable positive feedback. There's also an EFF petition: https://act.eff.org/action/support-tor-and-intellectual-freedom-in-libraries -- Pozdrawiam, Michał "rysiek" Woźniak Zmieniam klucz GPG :: http://rys.io/pl/147 GPG Key Transition :: http://rys.io/en/147

Someone should also see about notifying these folks, you might end up with an entire state full of relays... https://freestateproject.org/ http://forum.freestateproject.org/
