CNNMoney [cnn.com], Sputnik [sputniknews.com] (owned by the Russian government) and International Business Times UK [ibtimes.co.uk] report that a participant in the Tor Project left the United States for Germany after she was approached by an agent from the FBI's Los Angeles office. She has posted her account of the incident on her blog [patternsinthevoid.net] (PDF) and on Github [github.com]. She writes that she bought a return airline ticket on the advice of lawyers, but has not returned.
