Re: [tor-relays] knock knock, police is here

Not in Germany, at least it shouldn't. §§8-10 Telemediengesetz define something called "Providerprivileg" which exonerates any transport hops from prosecution, similar to how the postal service isn't responsible for any drugs they transport.

Additionally, thanks to the CCC [1] a lot of law enforcement actually knows what TOR is, that it's only a transport, and thus usually the investigation into the Exit operator is pretty limited... unless they find something else.
