The following part is partially a translation of [this article](https://prinzeugen.net/about-clowwindy-archive/). Thank printempw for collecting and posting the news about Shadowsocks and @clowwindy.
@clowwindy started arguing with @breakwa11 (on GitHub) about the Shadowsocks’ licensing problem. @clowwindy talked about how Chinese developer ignored the GPL license.
V2EX closed the Shadowsocks forum node. The URL redirect to the index.
@clowwindy deleted all issues on GitHub and changed all description to “Something happened.”. He also cleaned the membership of the Shadowsocks organization and hided all members from public view.
Rumor about “@clowwindy has been invited for some team” came out. (having tea with the authority means get warned).
@clowwindy replied on shadowsocks-windows #305 issue:
I was invited for some tea yesterday. I won't be able to continue developing this project.
*** @clowwindy locked his Twitter account from public view.
@clowwindy tweeted again to show he was still alive after the tea.
@clowwindy stated for the second time that he could not continue the development.
@breakwa11 said she would continue the development of Shadowsocks. @clowwindy thanked her. (I feel like it’s some sort of act-play)
@clowwindy deleted all the repositories related to Shadowsocks on GitHub. He’s last tweets on this incident were “I’ve said what I wanted to and could say.” / “Declaration: I will not involve the development of Shadowsocks.”
@breakwa11 mentioned some critical flaw Shadowsocks is having right now that might cause Shadowsocks get Walled at a glance. She also implied that she would make new SS closesourse for a while (about a year) to ensure the bug get fixed.

My personal feeling is that the country is leaping to a wrong track. We don’t necessarily know where the fuck our country is going, but we can tell it’s someplace fucked up.
