[tor-bugs] #4207 [Tor Directory Authority]: allow directory authorities to badexit by country code
#4207: allow directory authorities to badexit by country code

-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
Now that we have many thousands of users in Syria, some dozen of them
click 'share' each day.
There's a broader discussion to be had here around whether these are
useful relays for the Tor network at all (generally the relays we have
there are short-lived and trivial-capacity, so maybe it doesn't matter so
much), but I don't think we want to subject our users in the 'free'
countries (whatever those are) to Bluecoat's filters.
I was going to go make a few hundred authdirbadexit lines when I realized
that the authorities already have a geoip db built-in and they could just
do the lookup themselves.
I marked 'minor' priority since whether we actually want to deploy the
feature probably wants more discussion.
