Does TOR still allow anyone to run relay / exit nodes? It's only safe inasmuch as security agencies want to keep using their access when they need to.

In this case it's not the privacy you need from ToR but access so it doesn't really matter if the NSA runs the exit nodes because you're not exiting.

That's irrelevant if you are talking about hidden services.
