 Feel free to give these a try. We can use them for the medium term until
 we learn more about whether it was the woot paper that caused the trouble,
 or snowflake. (And if it was snowflake, ok I guess I will now have two
 domains to ask the safe browsing team wtf about.)

 Long term, once we've resolved the zip bomb question, I think using a
 cname in the torproject.net domain will be a fine choice.
