Re: [tor-relays] New Exit-Relay / First abuse issues



Hi,

i am with my exit node also on an Contabo VServer. I got now also some Abuse Notices, mostly from one ISP/Serverhoster who did them with a bot and only one from a Fail2Ban server. Contabo is allways angry with me, becouse i just block the IPS in the Abusemail and tell them that i did this and that, that im a TOR Exit node and that i also not looking in the Packets. They also threated me with the shoutdown of my Server since it would be getting too many Abuse Complains, but at this point it only had 3 or so, so that was bullshit. Furthermore i would say that they just dont want to work with this legal stuff, so they just try to scare ppl away.

Greetz,

Erwin.

the second abuse ticket reached Contabo yesterday about my service.
They now threaten to take down the server when the next ticket arrives so I had to shutdown the Exit Relay (I will reconfigure it as normal relay tomorrow). I requested to have a phone call with the Contabo Abuse department to figure out a solution because Germany now provides the legal grounds to operate a tor relay with (little to) no liability.

If I find a solution with Contabo I'll keep you updated.

It is most likely that they just don't want it, not for legal risks but
because of the work of processing complaints and the risk of ending up
on blacklists.

This! This sooooooo much. Moritz is 100% correct.
