Now, a few days later, Verizon seems to have settled down and I have had tha same ip since May 1st, so things seem less urgent. Though I realize that my vision of the local "mom and pop" relays has gotten more and more outdated.
Thank you very much for mentioning snowflake; I had never heard of it before; will look into it.

I'm hoping that Verizon will settle down and start renewing my ip address instead of giving me another every few hours, but of course I don't know if their pool of addresses is running low and they are scrambling or what.
You're right that this isn't great for a relay but...
Sounds like your home connection would be really good for a Snowflake bridge.

It's still in development, so don't expect much traffic just yet, but it's designed to have "snowflakes" popping up across the Internet faster than they can be blocked.
The fact that Verizon is giving you a new IP all the time may be a blessing, because once the old one is blocked you get a new one.
Thanks, Iain.
