I think this issue has been discussed here before.
The general opinion on the list is that it's not a good idea to run an exit at home. It's probably not worth the hassle.
For the peace of the mind and of the home sure.
OTOH if all put exit nodes on external providers, the vulnerability of the Tor network raise a lot, hoping that no one run it on VM without knowing/caring of this ....

I never thought I would be one of those operators who had to deal with the police or anything like that. I've done all I can to set things up so that it's easy to see that I run a exit node.
I have a disclaimer on my website : https://stigatle.no/index.php/tor-exit-node/
and if you go to the ip of the node, you'll see the same info: https://185.97.32.18/
I run this node - which is no secret: https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/04250C3835019B26AA6764E8 5D836088BE441088
So, back to earlier this morning. Suddenly got a hard knock on my door, I was surprised because we never get visitors. I saw it was the police (2 officers), and they asked if we could talk in private, because they heard my kids (2 and 4) and my wife upstairs, I said yes, no problem, let them in.
They would not let me know what it was about at first, they asked a lot about what I did yesterday, easy for me to answer since I was out climbing mountains all day long. Then asked a lot about who has access to my connection at home, It's just me, my wife, no one else.
Then I start to ask a bit, and I thought about the exit node I run, I quickly confirmed that it was the exit node (which is in sweden and not in Norway where I live) that was the reason why they where at my house. All though - 2 second check would confirm to them that the server is not at my house, and the impression they gave me until I showed the Exit node was that they thought it was sent from my house.
I have blocked the email ports on the exit node, but the issue was that a email had been sent through hotmail (web), threatening Angela Merkel, that's why they where at my house this morning.
I got the chance to explain everything as best I could, explained how it all worked, and why I run a exit node, and I feel they got all the answers they needed. They then left - and for now that was that.
I would be put on some kind of list, but that list would also explain that I operate a tor exit node. I'm happy with that, and hopefully this will be all that there's to it.
I might have to do some more explaining if I travel to sweden\germany, but that's fine with me.
Anyone else here that has this happen to you recently as well?..
