Over a month after a prominent staffer at the Tor Project was publicly accused of sexual misconduct and then left, the organization has shaken up its entire seven-person board of directors, replacing the seven who have left as of Wednesday with six new members.
The Tor Project is the Massachusetts-based nonprofit that maintains Tor, the well-known open-source online anonymity tool.
In June 2016, Jacob Appelbaum, one of Tor’s most public-facing developers and a member of the “Core Team,” denounced the matter as a “calculated and targeted attack has been launched to spread vicious and spurious allegations against me.”
