Re: [tor-relays] Speed of my relay not correct on global list



Not a matter of finance, really.
I run Mint 17 on a 12 yr old laptop, 40gb drive - that is one of my two relays. I regularly save the key so when this thing finally goes south, I can have another up in a couple hours. The other relay is on a 8 yr old laptop!
These were both dumpster items - cost to me was just time.

devious to use a compromised node than it does to create your own to do
bad stuff.
