[tor-relays] TOR router install without access to root

[pa011]

@Green
Thank you - couldn’t handle 'attack vector' as a synonym for ""method or
type of attack" :-)

Additional to that is it clever for a supporter of TOR to to run more
than one Relay (Exit) with a single ISP or even AS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system_(Internet) or does this
build a kind of new attack vector?
