Subject: [PATCH] Stop scaring users with "treason uncloaked!"
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2008 16:16:21 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1229638581.3726.546.camel@calx> (raw)
These debug messages are uninformative and extremely alarming. Rather
than reporting a peer as a treacherous attacker, report it more
correctly as simply broken.
