Quote from paper:
> 99% are DMCA complaints regarding the use of bittorrent.

Why do these complaints go to the exit node operators?
Isn't the complainer able to figure out the real IP of Bittorrent clients?

Why I am asking this: torrent uses UDP, Tor only routes TCP traffic.
Isn't it impossible to hide bittorrent traffic via Tor.
