[tor-relays] Tor Exit Node Winter Shutdown

[Jason Odoom <jasonodoom@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello relay operators,

I regret to inform you all that I will be shutting down my Tor Exit node  - Winter [0] after more than five years.  Digital Ocean's new bandwidth policy has made it incredibly expensive to keep this online. I incurred almost $200 of usage. I was lucky enough to have received a deduction off of my bill. I also believe that in this case asking for donations will do little to help. I did not host this Exit node for accolade but because I truly believe in what the Tor project is doing. I will allocate my budget for the Exit node towards monthly contributions to Tor as an alternative. Hopefully in the future I will be able to return. It's been fun.

Best,
