Ciao Gianluca,

Thank you for running a relay — we really appreciate your support! The 
information published on Tor Metrics is public by design, as it helps 
ensure transparency and supports research. Even if some details were 
redacted, similar information can still be discovered using widely 
available tools. If you're concerned about privacy, we recommend running 
your relay in an environment where it can't be easily linked to your 
hostname.

Cheers,

-hiro
