I vote for just kicking people off the list.  While this may feed into
their fascism/censorship fantasies, dropping the signal to noise ratio
doesn't help anyone search the archives nor get their questions
answered.

Kicked people are welcome to rejoin so long as they can keep their
posts relevant to technical details of tor, onion routing
research, and subsequent discussions.

There are plenty of places, that are not here, to discuss the global
cabal, licensing facts and opinions, mail user agent etiquette, and
future alien overlords from the Crab Nebula.  If you can't find these
places, start with usenet.

My $0.02; not that of the Tor Project.

I agree.  The noise on this mailing list is making my eyes bleed when I want to know what is going on with Tor.
To be honest, I haven't read much of the mailing list since for the last couple weeks because of all the noise.
We I open an e-mail from the Tor mailing list, I expect it to be about Tor or Tor related technologies, not 9/11 conspiracies.

I say ask them politely to stop, if not, kick'em off.
