Tor Cloud Shut Down Amid Lack of Support

From ThreatPost:


Tor Cloud Shut Down Amid Lack of Support


The Tor Project has shuttered its cloud proxy service citing security vulnerabilities, usability bugs and a lack of resources.


Tor offers its users the capacity to surf the Web anonymously, bouncing traffic through a series of relay servers so that no observer at any point can tell where that user’s traffic is traveling to or coming from. The Tor Cloud Project essentially offered a platform for creating network bridges within Amazon’s Elastic Cloud Compute in order for users to evade  censorship.
