<div class="">Hi,</div>
<div class="">Im running an exit relay for 116 days. Today i received an email from my ISP saying that my account has been locked for security reasons.</div>
<div class="">They asked me to send a copy of my identity card and a selfie holding it. I found that very odd and i feel uncomfortable sending that data to them.</div>
<div class="">Should i give up to running my exit relay and find another ISP?</div>
