Hello, 

Please read https://torproject.org and perhaps you'll change your mind.

Bad people will do bad things no matter what.  If a bank robber uses a public street or highway during a crime does that mean we should destroy the highway?  No.

I wish you the best.

John

Thanks for the info. You’re still an IP providing frauds, pedophiles, and intelligence agencies access to do illegal attacks and activities. Bunch of cowards to hide behind Tor…

Hello,

 

It's because i'm running Tor Exit servers.  I am an ISP. I will not turn off any of the Tor exit servers because I am not doing anything illegal. 

 

If you feel you must file legal action, please do so.

 

If you're not concerned about blocking Tor, why don't you block all of the exit nodes instead?  Bloxking just my exit will not help a lot.

 

Feel free to block 199.249.223.0/24 and 199.249.224.0/24 and you won't have any traffic from Quintex servers.

 

John

John, why am I getting Tor related hackers from your servers? Hmmm… Please turn it off or I’ll be filing legal against your company.

You've chosen to block the network that 199.249.224.41 is part of. We've marked the networks we found that this IP address belongs to in red below. Make sure you read all the WHOIS information so that you see all networks this IP belongs to. We recommend blocking the network with the lowest number of addresses. You may find this is listed at the end as part of the 'rWHOIS' query which contacts the local WHOIS server that is run by the network administrator.
