Another blow to the Tor Project: One of the Tor Project's earliest contributors has decided to quit the project and shut down all of the important Tor nodes under his administration.
Lucky Green was part of the Tor Project before the anonymity network was known as TOR. He probably ran one of the first 5 nodes in the TOR network at its inception and managed special nodes inside the anonymity network.
However, Green announced last weekend that "it is no longer appropriate" for him to be part of the Tor Project, whether it is financially or by providing computing resources.
TOR, also known as The Onion Router, is an anonymity network that makes use of a series of nodes and relays to mask its users' traffic and hide their identity by disguising IP addresses and origins.
The TOR network is used by privacy-conscious people, activists, journalists and users from countries with strict censorship rules.
