While we believe that running an exit relay is legal, it is statistically likely that an exit relay will at some point be used for illegal purposes, which may attract the attention of private litigants or law enforcement. An exit relay may forward traffic that is considered unlawful, and that traffic may be attributed to the operator of a relay. If you are not willing to deal with that risk, a bridge or middle relay may be a better fit for you. These relays do not directly forward traffic to the Internet and so can't be easily mistaken for the origin of allegedly unlawful content. +Exit relays raise special concerns because the traffic that exits from them can be traced back to the relay's IP address. +While we believe that running an exit relay is legal, it is statistically likely that an exit relay will at some point be used for illegal purposes, which may attract the attention of private litigants or law enforcement. +An exit relay may forward traffic that is considered unlawful, and that traffic may be attributed to the operator of a relay. +If you are not willing to deal with that risk, a bridge or middle relay may be a better fit for you. +These relays do not directly forward traffic to the Internet and so can't be easily mistaken for the origin of allegedly unlawful content.
