(Schneier would later reference "accus[ations] of sexual assault by multiple women" against Appelbaum, without citations or mentioning his own role in the **Tor Project**, in his section of the informational RFC 9446: "[Reflections on Ten Years Past the Snowden Revelations](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9446.html#section-2-8)." He then also exposes Appelbaum as the alleged source for "an implant catalog from the NSA's Tailored Access Operations group" that was published by [**Der Spiegel**](https://www.spiegel.de/international/world/the-nsa-uses-powerful-toolbox-in-effort-to-spy-on-global-networks-a-940969.html).)
 
 Neither the [old board of directors](https://archive.is/HxbPp) nor the new have publicly commented on the investigation outside of praising the **Tor Project**'s response; Blaze had [commented on the initial public statement](https://web.archive.org/web/20180813124545/https://twitter.com/mattblaze/status/739197427245305857?lang=en) and Coleman was the only board member to personally blog about the allegations, praising Steele for how "[action was taken relatively swiftly](https://archive.is/5GvrC#selection-357.96-357.147)." She has not disclosed whether she knew about her [upcoming appointment](https://archive.is/L1iIh#selection-211.0-213.1014) to the [**Tor Project** board of directors](https://web.archive.org/web/20160726015109/https://www.torproject.org/about/board.html.en) when the blog post was published on June 24th.
