Over a month after a prominent staffer at the Tor Project left the organization amid public accusations of sexual misconduct , the project has shaken up its entire seven-person board of directors, replacing the seven who have left as of Wednesday with six new members

The Tor Project is the Massachusetts-based nonprofit that maintains Tor, the well-known open-source online anonymity tool.

In June 2016, Jacob Appelbaum, one of Tor’s most public-facing developers and a member of the "Core Team," denounced the accusations as a "calculated and targeted attack has been launched to spread vicious and spurious allegations against me."

"I want to be clear: the accusations of criminal sexual misconduct against me are entirely false," he wrote on Twitter at the time.

Notably, the new members include many luminaries in the field of information security, including Bruce Schneier, a well-known cryptographer.

The new board members also include three women, including Cindy Cohn, the executive director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Gabriella Coleman, a professor at McGill University, and Megan Price, the executive director of the Human Rights Data Analysis Group. (The previous board had two women, Meredith Hoban Dunn, an accountant, and Wendy Seltzer, an attorney and staff member at the World Wide Web Consortium.)

In addition, the Tor Project named Linus Nordberg, a privacy activist, and Matt Blaze, a computer science professor at the University of Pennsylvania, to the board. There is also one remaining board seat.
