Re: [tor-relays] What if my favorite online store websiteblacklists all Tor Relay IP addresses?



Just wanted to follow up - I emailed yelp, never heard back from them, but now we can access it.  We can also access TDBank North (I can't remember if I emailed them or not).

Chuck do you run Tor on a separate machine to do that? Or have you found some way to pass only your Tor traffic through the VPN?

Cheers.

I run a tor exit node (CulverCityChuck) using my home Internet (Time Warner). I did used to get blacklisted by Yelp and occasionally Google. I started using an anonymous VPN service for my exit node which gives it a different IP than the rest of my home traffic and haven't had a problem since. Costs less than $100 / year and gives me (and my ISP) some measure of protection from DMCA complaints.

The other side of the issue would be customers accessing web storefronts via tor and getting blocked because the traffic comes from an exit node. Not sure what the answer to that is.
