A Tor friendly ISP is gone has nothing to do with a Tor relay mailing list?
Yes I would say so. Mentioning a few Tor nodes going offline is one thing, but by now half of this list is covered in total b/s drivel such as
Agree strongly.
+1 First of all, we are not talking about an ISP in the real sense of the word. Is is OVH who is the ISP. This is a re-seller of an ISP, but this is not the point.
The point is, with all due respect, this really has to stop. it has been so much noise about this, more than any CVE vulnerability we had. This is not what this mailing list is meant for. This is not Conrad Rockenhaus blog or support forums. If so much people on this list are interested in this topic these people should setup their own community, own mail list and own blogs / forums where they can talk about Greypony until the Earth as a planet becomes square. But it is off topic here. This statement could have been sent directly to their customers, not to everyone on the list.
Would you like me to start sending every day emails about how I bought a provider independent prefix and contracted 2 upstream providers with BGP sessions and 4gbps bwidth? I done this to avoid being thrown over and over by hosters as I changed more than 5 in the last 2 years. I didn't notify anyone about it as I don't think anyone should care.
For example the BGP session with my backup provider failed today for 45 minutes. Would you like to hear about it? I sent them an email. They fixed it. Hmmm.
On the other side of things, I am really sorry about the health incident, which is of course sad, and I wish Conrad a fast recovery and best wishes for his health and his family.
