Re: [tor-relays] Tor Relay Web Ports



They can raid my home(s), it won't make it any less legal to operate
an exit node, for it's traffic I am still not responsible.

I've had run-ins with the law regarding exit nodes in the past, and
all the cases against me got dropped due to not being liable for the
traffic I have not initiated. Any good lawyer will know this.

I also recommend the EFF pages on the topic.
