Any idea how to go about it (i.e. finding servers with providers that are not opposed to Tor, or DDoS attacks (if it's an exit node)? Also, there's the issue of bandwidth - running a Tor node on my connection at ~500kb/s easily goes through 10-20 gb/day for both uploads and downloads, so the monthly costs can built up quite quickly... Would love to hear your thoughts!
