Heya Ben,<br>
<br>
It seems like, from my research from Speak Freely's notes and the
good/bad isp list, that the $10-$20/mo range usually gets you
100Mbit/s unmetered exit-friendly VPS connections, although I'm
interested in trying hosts that advertise better connections for
similar prices. I'm very interested in being an operator of such a
node, and if you wanted to be the owner, let me know, because I
really think we could get a successful node going that utilizes our
strengths. If you're interested, just shoot me an email and we can
work out the details.<br>

<br>
This comes back to my suggestion of having people in the
community come together that have different strengths to get
some more strong exits going. Sharif is primarily concerned
about lack of time managing the abuse and such from the exit
node, and my primary concern is spending money on what's
ultimately a donation to a cause when I could be selfishly
spending it on my student loans. <br>
<br>
If people like Sharif and I got together to jointly run nodes
as Owner/Operator, I think we could really expand the
community in both infrastructure and people.<br>
