Good point. I never thought about pro actively informing the local police about my nodes. Will check this with my lawyer.

Several years later "Internet crime experts" coming from the police in Bergisch Gladbach (pretty close to Rösrath) made first contact by executing a Durchsuchungsbeschluss (search warrant) that didn't mention Tor in any way ...

I hope these days German police is better educated about Tor exit nodes.

Thanks
