[tor-relays] British Airways website blocking non exit relays IPs?

But it does happen. BBC block you on bbc iPlayer for example if your IP is
listed as TOR anything.  One reason I have my exit node a different IP.  BBC
reasoning maybe copyright and that still you have to be UK based to access
the site, but annoying when non-tor use could not access as well. To be fair
when I swapped TOR IP over BBC took my original IP off their blacklist when
asked.

IPs?

 

Have to revert my statement!
On my real exit IP I also get that error. Sorry.

On my home connection (no Tor involved) I can access the site. However on my
exit IP I can also access the page :-)

I am now wondering is this is because I run a (non exit) relay. Can
anyone confirm if they also have the problem?

Yes I can confirm I'm getting the same from a non-Exit relay IP, and not
getting the error when accessing from IPs which don't run a Tor relay.
