Re: [tor-relays] Running Tor exit nodes on university networks

[Matthias Fetzer <tor@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Andreas,

There is a mailing list for tor & universities: 
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-relays-universities/ its not 
very high traffic and the archives do not hold many e-mails.

It's maybe worth to ask there too and to read through the archives.

I'd also suggest to check for EDU relays on relay search and contact 
some of the bigger EDU relays directly. It would probably be good to 
have some catalog of questions ready.

Edu AS that I remember to run tor exit relays:

- AS3 (MIT, US)
- AS680 (DFN, DE)
- AS12093 (UWaterloo, CA)
- AS36850 (UNC, US)

There are probably dozens more. So I'd suggest to browse through relay 
search yourself :-)

Best regards,
Matthias
