<div> Hej,<br><br>Is your relay at home? Is your relay in your country?<br></div>The exits which I have in Germany are the fastest and are no worry at all especially because I am far away.<br>There have been 5,000 relays and exits each day for some time yet there has been not one real legal problem, to my knowledge.<br>People running exits from time to time get letters from paper tigers representing USA corporations. At first I wrote careful argument back but having received not one reply I don't waste time on that any more.<br>The virtual private server businesses have sometimes banned Tor immediately which I take as just one of the costs and move on to another.<br>It is a significant point that all that passes through your relay is encrypted and none is retained so how could you be culpable of anything?<br><br>Robert<br><br><br><blockquote style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"><div class="msgHeaders"><br></div><div class="oldBody"><div><div _style="font-family: Verdana;font-size: 12.0px;"><div>Hi list,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have set up a tor relay with no exit functionality yet. Having read</div>
<div>through the documentation and general legal hints, I am still unsure</div>
<div>of the legal situation in Germany. Are there some of you guys who</div>
<div>had contact with hosting providers because of abuse claims?</div>
<div>Is there anything you can share? Are pure relays safe to use or</div>
<div>are the hosting providers still clueless?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks and best regards.</div>
