Re: [tor-relays] Question about responding to abuse request



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512

I receive the Webiron abuse complaints too. You can opt-out of their
e-mails as I personally also do not like restricting access to
specific networks.

For the relays I run which are in a SWIP-ed IP range redirecting the
abuse to myself I just ignore them. I do however have a few relays
without IP addresses on my own name for which I did have to add a
reported range to the exit policy to prevent an angry hoster.

It is up to yourself to decide what you can and want to do with it.
Better have a relay which stays running but restricting access to one
/24 range than have it offline as a whole.

Just my two cents.
