Comment (by cypherpunks):

 (quotes collection):
 "Sign in to OFTC with your Google+ OAuth"
 As of 2017-03-26, NickServ will require nick verification via
 services.oftc.net for the +R user mode. This affects channels using the +M
 and +R channel modes.
 a lot of ordinary new participants will just walk away because
 verification is oppressive
 but not to spammers etc, who are more highly motivated
 well and #tor will just stay +R, which harms it the most due to it being
 full of people who often do not want javascript enabled :/
