Alice to have a low reputation, and the only high bandwidth circuit
Alice could use would be via the evil node.
+3.14. If you run a fast server, can you run your client elsewhere?
+
+ A lot of people want to run a fast server at a colocation facility,
+ and then reap the rewards using their cablemodem or DSL Tor client.
+
+ If we use anonymous micropayments, where reputation can literally
+ be transferred, this is trivial.
+
+ If we pick a design where servers accrue reputation and can only
+ use it themselves, though, the clients can configure the servers as
+ their entry nodes and "inherit" their reputation. In this approach
+ we would let servers configure a set of IP addresses or keys that get
+ "like local" service.
