Reimbursement of Exit Operators

So I rent a VPS in Egypt and provide an exit node there. I am as small time as it gets. Looks like this will not do anything at all for me since they are looking for very large players to provide exit nodes.

I do like the idea of Tor becoming fast. It's painful to use currently. If someone like Netflix was to donate 1% of their bandwidth to Tor, things would look so much better.

Where do you get VPS hosting in Egypt? I am in the region and very interested to hear someone with experience in this, meaning VPS and providers not in Europe. My experience with friends and colleagues is a lot of the latter.

They used to be a lot cheaper. I got mine for $2.50 off a lowendbox.com sale. It has not been super reliable through the turmoil in the region, so there were a few days of downtime for the VPS and the control panel/website. In other words don't rely on it to be your single point of failure, but for me it has worked well as a secondary machine.
