I recently got this answer from "torworld.org" -see below.
They told me that a relay https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/3D512D9ACD9A6056ED6EA20C46406FA5A67883... with contact "e @torworld" is not operated by them.
As nusenu showed at the end of the message some days ago somebody with a similar contact address was running 5 at the time, currently 6 relays.
Some questions I like to ask:
Why is somebody running relays with the contact domain of another party?
Is there a way that mails ever reach e@torworld.org?
Why not giving a correct MyFamily set-up when running 6 relays?
5 of 6 relays have a Guard status - let me remind on a recent discussion "How can we trust the guards?" ?
Regards Paul

Hello,
This Exit node is not affiliated with us.
"https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/3D512D9ACD9A6056ED6EA20C46406FA5A67883..."
All the nodes we'll operate will have this "abuse [AT] torworld.org - BTC 17iwdtpmgHdPt15twdT2sUcdeKgz9PTNMQ" In their contact info area, and when the website is back up. You can check to see a list of current Tor nodes we operate etc.
As for the MyFamily for the Guard/Middle nodes; Lunar operates/runs those. So you'll have to get in contact with him if you want to talk about his MyFamily setup.
Take care,

Could you explain please why names like torworld.org, torservers.net, online de, etc. are not aggregated in one position on https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ornetstats/stats/master/o/main_exit_operat...
https://github.com/ornetstats/stats writes:
Relays are aggregated based on effective families.
So they are not setting MyFamily properly or someone else is using their contactInfo.
Maybe I should rename the files to main_..._families.txt
Better would be a warning: Family currently worth nothing !!
torservers.net: https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/ABF7FBF389C9A747938B639B20E80620B460B2... -> no one of the given family is blue, so yes the family seems wrong
zwiebeln online de: https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/0E2773CF5609FD7FA52837E53DF4B0D47F0D15... -> all the family members are blue, counting 27 , which is slightly more than your 2 lines added together this morning
torworld.org : https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/3D512D9ACD9A6056ED6EA20C46406FA5A67883... -> currently 12 big Exits - no Family given at all at https://torstatus.rueckgr.at/index.php

Hi e AT torworld.org,
thanks for running 5 relays!
Please do not forget to set the MyFamily parameter in your torrc configuration to tell clients your relays belong to a single operator.
If you need help with the MyFamily option let us know.
thanks, nusenu https://github.com/nusenu/ansible-relayor
