 The [https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq-abuse.html.en abuse FAQ] is
 really old and contains some statements that are increasingly
 questionable.

 Examples:

 * "So yes, criminals could in theory use Tor"
  * I think there's a more direct and honest way to phase this
 * "The network has been running since October 2003, and it's only
 generated a handful of complaints."
  * It's probably generated tens of thousands of complaints at this point,
 no?
 * The section about services blocking Tor is very out of date (only
 mentions Wikipedia and SORBS). It should probably just be a stub that
 redirects to the new page for that initiative.

 There's a lot of other cleanup to be done too. I think these (particularly
 the first two) are important to change for the sake of honesty, though.
