Hi Matthias,
I'm running an exit node from my home network in NRW for about 2 years now. Worst thing that happened was a cease-and-desist order ("Abmahnung") from 20th Century FOX in February this year, because someone obviously torrented a movie through my node.
They stopped threatening me after I've sent them a letter - kindly provided by Moritz from torservers.net - explaining the situation and including a link to metrics.torproject.org to show that my IP was indeed a Tor exit at the time in question.
I posted about this on this list, so you'll find my mails in the archive.
Hope that helped a little, Hendrik

Hello,
I want to run an exit-node through mit home connection. Has anyone experience with running a Tor-Relay in Germany( Bavaria)?
Are there known cases of police raids? Is there a list of lawyers which work with the torproject which should be called in case of a raid? Has anyone had sucsess with talking to the police prior to setting up the exit-node? If so, to which departmed did you talk to?
Yours
Matthias
