Re: [tor-relays] Unwarranted discrimination of relays with dynamic IP



The dollar sign is optional.

Find ExcludeNodes option description at:
https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en

> A list of identity fingerprints, country codes, and address patterns
of nodes to avoid when building a circuit. Country codes are 2-letter
ISO3166 codes, and must be wrapped in braces; fingerprints may be
preceded by a dollar sign.

In my experience, this holds true all over a torrc.
