Heya Ben,
It seems like, from my research from Speak Freely's notes and the good/bad isp list, that the $10-$20/mo range usually gets you 100Mbit/s unmetered exit-friendly VPS connections, although I'm interested in trying hosts that advertise better connections for similar prices. I'm very interested in being an operator of such a node, and if you wanted to be the owner, let me know, because I really think we could get a successful node going that utilizes our strengths. If you're interested, just shoot me an email and we can work out the details.

Well met,
This comes back to my suggestion of having people in the community come together that have different strengths to get some more strong exits going. Sharif is primarily concerned about lack of time managing the abuse and such from the exit node, and my primary concern is spending money on what's ultimately a donation to a cause when I could be selfishly spending it on my student loans.
If people like Sharif and I got together to jointly run nodes as Owner/Operator, I think we could really expand the community in both infrastructure and people.

I'd like to operate an exit node[0], my chief concern being lack of time. The only reason I can operate relays at all is by automating everything I can; I've considered things like writing an autoresponder to a prominent abuse email address which delivers the standard exit-node boilerplate appended with a contact address in case followup is necessary, but I have no idea how effective that would be - any thoughts would be welcome. Thanks, Sharif [0] I prefer not to contribute funds in lieu of operating relays; it's tempting, but operator diversity is important. _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org <mailto:tor-relays@lists.torproject.org> https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
