Comment(by mikeperry):
Do we want to automatically BadExit all nodes running upstream
transproxies? They can also be used for caching to try to improve
performance, or may just be present at the upstream ISP. My old University
used to run an upstream caching proxy...
We already do detect censorship of exploit info by AV systems. We can try
to focus this by running an exit scanner specifically scraping computer
security and exploit related search queries. That would probably get
anyone running a dumb IDS censor like snort.
