[tor] First Library to Support Anonymous Internet Browsing Effort Stops After DHS Email

[Patrick O'Doherty]

I don't think it's currently recorded, outside of the emails to the list
when things like this happen.

I'm all in favour of there being a public log of inquiries like this.

Perhaps we can actually get in contact with them and weigh in here as long-term exit node operators who have also had visits from the feds, we can give them some meaningful input.  Like how often this happens, what to do when it happens, reasons why exit nodes are so important despite the attention they garnet from law enforcement, etc.  It may make a difference when it comes time for that meeting.
