 ### Tor at Universities: Find allies.
 
-Find some professors (or deans!) who like the idea of supporting and/or  researching anonymity on the Internet. If possible, use an extra IP range whose abuse contact doesn't go through the main university abuse team. Ideally, use addresses that are not trusted by the IP-based authentication many library-related services use -- if the university's entire IP address space is "trusted" to access these library resources, the university is forced to maintain an iron grip on all its addresses.

 ### Find Tor-friendly ISPs.
 
 A good ISP is one that offers cheap bandwidth and is not being used by other members of the Tor community. Before you continue, you may ask the Tor   community if your choice is a good one. We very much need diversity, and  it does not help if we pool too many exits at one friendly ISP.

 Depending on the chosen form, setting up a legal body might help with liability, and in general it helps to appear bigger than you are (and less likely to get raided). The guys from Torservers.net in Germany found a lawyer who would agree to "host" them inside his office. They are now are a non-profit association ("eingetragener Verein, gemeinnutzig") registered inside a lawyer's office. The setup process was easy and cheap. Similar setups probably exist for your country. Another benefit of an association-like structure is that it might still work even when you leave, if you manage to find successors.

 TorServers.net is a fairly large Tor exit operator and we receive only a very small number of complaints, especially compared to the amount of traffic we push. Roughly 80% are automated reports, and the rest is usually satisfied with [our default reply](https://www.torservers.net/wiki/abuse/templates). We have not needed the input of a lawyer in many years of operation following the advice on this page.
 
-In addition to the [templates at Torservers.net](https://www.torservers.net/wiki/abuse/templates), you can find many more templates for various scenarios on the [Tor Abuse Templates](FIXME) . It is exceptionally rare to encounter a scenario where none of these templates apply.

+### Make the WHOIS info point as close to you as possible.
 
 One of the biggest reasons exit relays disappear is because the people answering the abuse address get nervous and ask you to stop. If you can get your own IP block, great. Even if not, many providers will still reassign subblocks to you if you ask. ARIN uses [SWIP](https://www.arin.net/resources/request/reassignments.html), and RIPE uses something similar. You can also add comments to your range, hinting at your usage as anonymization service ([Example](https://apps.db.ripe.net/search/query.html?searchtext=ZWIEBELFREUNDE)). If you have questions about the process, please write an email to support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx and we will try to explain the process to you.

 The [Reduced Exit Policy](FIXME)  is an alternative to the default exit policy.  It allows many Internet services while still blocking the  majority of TCP ports. This drastically reduces the odds that a Bittorrent user will select your node and thus reduces or even eliminates the number of [DMCA complaints](https://2019.www.torproject.org/eff/tor-dmca-response) you will receive.
