Your domain name and org name in the listing is the credit. We can't have mirrors modifying the html, otherwise it's not a true mirror. What you do with your directory listing, of say /dist/, is open to interpretation.

Anyone can run a mirror, but if it isn't listed, it's unlikely anyone will trust it. In the past we have used our registered trademark to remove unofficial mirrors which injected their own text, ads, or swapped binaries. Mirrors should serve byte identical files to master, that is torproject.org. It's how some users verify that they are not being MITM by their OS, ISP, or government.
