They have to take care of the abuse mails, normally a real human will doing this job and this costs money. Companies want to make money, these costs and the possible reputation costs (people get upset if someone tries to hack their server/computer/hamster) is a really good reason to refuse you as a client.
We would need at least get rid of the botnets within Tor to change this.

I have also contacted RIMU Hosting, which has servers in Australia, and they said "As an account holder under our terms of use, you would be directly responsible for all content in and out of your server. In general that is not possible to do with a tor exist node, so we are not a good fit for that use case."
Hosters like this are retarded making no sense. So they're in turn "directly responsible" to their upstream for all their net in/out? Even though clear custom is ISP exception. What about all the forums they host? Are they going to shut them along with tor exits as being not responsible too? So they only sell one way outbound publishing services, on boxes that are never cracked? Or only "personal" hosting? Many ISP is legally laughable FUD excuses like above. And they should be called out and educated on it. Try asking if they allow hosting resale, onion hosting, cryptocurrency nodes, overlay / messaging nodes, I2P, bittorrent trackers, free speech, etc... And responsible for what? _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
