As far as I understand it was an investigation, and it resulted in not taking any action. So, I am again asking, how was it dealt with? I might be an ESL but “dealing with something” means you take some action to make the problem not repeat.
OK, I bite that this is hopeless and there is no solution to this from your side, and you guys can sit on your asses while your users fail to utilize the onion services of whonix (its website, forum, and deb repos) – but at least have you told this problem to the upstream tor maintainers, developers, etc.? Do the tor developers agree that “humph.. there’s nothing we can do about this.. tor is not simply built for reliable tor network services…”
