This is why I chose to forbid exits from "kitsune;" IMO, exit nodes are
best left for things like schools, companies, etc. which have the
resources to deal with abuse fallout. Such institutions tend to have
some sort of legal contact.
Let's face it - the cops are unlikely to rush in and seize every
computer in a college. However, home users are far easier to steamroll.
(Although somewhat unrelated, the idea of someone doing something
illegal via some home user's open wireless network came to mind; both
that person and a Tor exit node op would be in a similar situation, I
think.)
