All,
I'm getting about 4x the abuse traffic that I normally get from running exits. Anyone else noticing this trend?

How do you define abusive traffic?
Do analyze dumps of your network traffic?
Is your ISP sending more abuse letters than usual?
If the latter, then it might just be a fluke - when I ran exits, the same thing happened - one month 17 abuse reports, the other month 193.. nothing you can do about it except to limit commonly abused ports but that's not a long term solution and I will refrain from doing so, even if the port is mostly abused - I am strictly against censorship, and all the exits I used to own ran under my own IP range and abuse contact, so abuse mails just went directly to spam unless it was actual GOVT requests.

Letters of abuse from companies and other ISPs demonstrating hacking attempts. I am not talking about or including DMCA requests.

No, that is not done on the subnet that I put my 100 exit routers on.

I am the ISP. I am getting about 4x more abuse complaints than normal.

I have received more subpoena than regular in the last two months.

Which you can answer with a template document, stating that you are not responsible for the traffic and that you, as the ISP / network provider are protected by law, and can not be held responsible for data passing through your routers.

I am as well constantly getting emails about it from my ISP. As well as a few companies... not sure why there ramping up. For now I setup a mail rule to forward them to a different mailbox inside my email.
Thanks, John Csuti

I have considered changing my abuse email at ARIN as well. Thanks for letting me know that it is also happening to you.
