Hello everybody,

do you know of any relay seizures of non-exit relays? In the legal FAQ [1] this "risk" is only listed below exit relays. Have there been any of such events in Germany (either exit- or any other nodes)?

Would I have to worry about seizures if I run a guard or middle relay in Germany?

Hi Thomas,

I'm operating a non-exit tor relay from my home in Germany since more than a year. I can't imagine a situation where the authorities would be interested in the fact that I'm operating a non-exit relay.

The only interested party might be your ISP due to the additional traffic.
