Comment(by arma):

 We added the badexit flag to 176.99.10.92 two days ago.

 Interestingly, I'd already added it to 178.250.246.37 on March 6 on
 moria1, but tor26 and turtles hadn't because they weren't convinced. I
 think I just got tor26 to add it.

 This is certainly a growing problem -- a particular entity is running many
 fast exits, many in Russia but not all, and doing this mitm thing. We
 might have to consider further steps in the arms race (the eventual step
 is to establish a strong social network between exit relay operators, but
 it would be good to put that off a while more).
