<div>I was running an exit at my home connection for close to one year. I removed it because normal internet usage became absolutely anoying. Capchas and DOS-Protections nearly everywhere. No streaming-portal was running. And lots of complaints from my provider.</div>

<div>But no Cop action!</div>

<div> </div>

<div>And now i am running 2 exits hosted in datacenters, one in germany, one in malaysia. No problems by now.</div>

<div name="quoted-content">They raid your home even if the Tor node is run in a datacenter. Sadly<br/>
the police in germany is still stuck in the 90s and most of them don't<br/>
know and/or care what Tor is and how it works.<br/>
