I think you're missing the point of running a Tor relay.<br class="">
<br class="">
"The Tor network relies on <i class="">volunteers</i> to <b class="">donate</b>
bandwidth."<br class="">
<br class="">
Volunteer: A person who <i class="">freely</i> offers to undertake a task,
or, <i class="">freely</i> offer to do something.<br class="">
<br class="">
Donate: <b class="">give</b> (money or goods) for a good cause.<br class="">

The Tor Project doesn't owe you anything.<br class="">

When did t-shirts become more important than the work we are doing to
keep people safe and anonymous on the internet?
</pre>
</blockquote>
<pre wrap="" class="">Actually they are.
I haven't bought any shirts for four years because I can get one tshirt for 60 days of a virtual server costing $Aud15-40/year which makes them $2 to $6 each. None have worn out and they're posted free!
So, with up to 40 VPSs running I have a huge backlog owed so quite a bit of interest in the situation and relatives waiting.
