Sounds good. > Also, someone wrote on our forum that there "is no evidence whatsoever > that this hidden service is maintained by OFTC".

I've already talked with them on #oftc, and they have no idea who runs it, and suggested us to ask on #tor, which I did but no one spoke up. For what it's worth, I've used that hidden service with SSL, which of course results in a cert error every time due to host mismatch, but I always manually checked the fingerprint of the certs, and they we're good. Hence I think it's legit and doesn't MitM. Cheers!
