 I still think it's very wrong of us to let one troll (note: the same guy
 who told us to "burn in hell" on #tor-dev said he left a message on
 Andrew's voicemail) cause us to make it easier for people to get owned.

 I admit that we should have done two releases: One with the warning, and
 one with actually disabling it. Since we can't go back in time to do this,
 we should just forget about it, and move on.

 Specific trolls can be told how they can put themselves in danger on a
 case by case basis. Just give them this url:
