Re: [tor-relays] exitnodes blocking services



An exit node at home is funny. Last year I've got visitors from law enforcement early in the morning. Now I have some new "friends" from the police department.

Be warned! They take a look on bad movies and assume you are the one...

Now I have my servers outside and at home a middle node only.

To answer your specific questions:

The IP addresses of all nodes on the Tor network are publicly available, and they tend to wind up in various blacklists.

Yes, unfortunately that's a real problem for Tor users. Sometimes we get captcha'd and other times we just get blocked.
