I should have specified that I was talking about brute force attempts against http servers, not SSH servers. I don't get any complaints about SSH brute force attempts.

Regarding SSH I have only received complaints from sysads complaining about unauthorized connection attempts to port 22 getting caught in firewalls, sometimes even with no SSH service listening on port 22. Since I follow the exit guidelines with tor-exit-notice.html on DirPort, Reverse DNS etc., and the sysads don't even bother to do a reverse lookup before sending abuse complaints I will not bother wasting my time on answering them. It is no secret how to properly secure internet connected systems, and in all cases their firewalls etc. obviously works, so my message to them, if any, would be "Welcome to the internet...".
Apart from ssh brutes I have had a few autogenerated complaints from valuehost.ru.

I've noticed a rather large jump in abuse emails from admits about brute force attempts coming from my exit nodes.
I've had a handful of these in past, as you'd expect but now they are arriving multiple times a day, some automated emails, some not.
Has anyone else noticed a jump in abuse complaints?
Curious as to whether it's a spike in the network being used for abuse, more admits reading logs or just my luck.
