What datacenter do you use? How much does it cost? Did you get any legal troubles?

Why would you get in legal trouble for hosting tor exit nodes? There’s nothing illegal about that is it?

The exit node could be the last known trace of illegal activity so someone could perhaps take a shot at you for aiding & abetting or similar. Right or wrong, can you afford that fight?

This is one of those cases where often the question is not whether your actions are legal, the question is whether you can afford the time and resource required, and in some cases take on the potential reputational risk, to successfully defend yourself against someone (commercial, law enforcement, political, ...) who says they aren't and tries to make you stop.

Hosting an exit node is not illegal, but some of the users of that exit node may be doing illegal things.

Tell that to the SWAT...after the smoke grenade clears out.

Did you miss the part where it wasn't the US?

every country has their own version of SWAT, some will make USA SWAT seems like angels. Also, I replied to "there's nothing illegal in running a TOR exit."

In short, my reply was: maybe it's not illegal but you might suffer quit a bit by the time it's all cleared.

Are smoke grenades a legit thing outside of counter strike?

Yes: https://dod.defense.gov/OIR/gallery/igphoto/2001245589/

Personally or on behalf of a company? I ran two in the US and folded due to legal pressure.

If you don't want legal trouble, don't run exit nodes. I've configured my relay to serve as a middle node. I'm using a provider that's known to be hostile towards Tor relay operators with no repercussions for about two years now.

Personally

Good job! And thanks for running it. How much is that NForce server per month? I'm looking to move my nose away from hetzner.

Thank you.
