Hi, after having four entry/middle nodes online I would like to help out with an exit node. Unfortunately you will get in a lot of trouble in Germany for hosting an exit node. I spoke with an VPN provider and they are okay with routing tor traffic over their VPN as long I have exit rulez etc. The only thing I need is a routing script for Debian to route all the Tor traffic over the VPN. Anyone can help me out with this? Markus
You can rent a VPS in another country for as little as ten bucks a month. You could configure one as an exit node. Cheers, K. On 18/02/16 23:16, Markus Koch wrote:

I am not really sure if this will help. As a german subject living in Germany I have to obey german laws even if I host a server in another EU country. Right or wrong? 2016-02-19 0:40 GMT+01:00 <ken@kenbaker.co.uk>:

Thank you, I contacted them a few days before. Unfortunately they cant really help me with routing on Linux and I use my servers for other stuff too so I dont really want to sponsor a dedicated server as an exit node. Dual use 4 the win :) 2016-02-19 0:46 GMT+01:00 I <beatthebastards@inbox.com>:

Markus, From that you must have been thinking of your home for the exit which is a bit dicey. https://www.exoticvps.com/ is a place to look for a vps which might be $50 (Australian) a year and fairly speedy. Rob
At the moment I am hosting with online.net and hetzner with over 1 Petabyte traffic so its not really my home connection :) But both have my personal information and Hetzner even needed a copy of my passport so I am very cautious. But this URL looks great. Any recommendations? Btw, how long does it take to be "useful" as an exit node? 2016-02-19 0:59 GMT+01:00 I <beatthebastards@inbox.com>:

If I understand correctly you are hoping to setup an exit node where the outbound user traffic that would normally go to the clearnet winds up going through a VPN first instead? I'm not sure this is a very friendly idea for the Tor network. At the very least, it's introducing an extra hop and additional latency. The average Tor user has no ability to easily detect or opt-out of this situation. At the worst, depending on how the VPN is implemented, you might introduce other performance issues (TCP over TCP tunnels comes to mind) or security issues (DNS leaks, VPN provider now has the ability to sniff traffic, etc.).
