[tor-relays] New Exit-Relay / First abuse issues

[hallo at d-ku.de]

Hi,

i am with my exit node also on an Contabo VServer. I got now also some 
Abuse Notices, mostly from one ISP/Serverhoster who did them with a bot 
and only one from a Fail2Ban server. Contabo is allways angry with me, 
becouse i just block the IPS in the Abusemail and tell them that i did 
this and that, that im a TOR Exit node and that i also not looking in 
the Packets. They also threated me with the shoutdown of my Server since 
it would be getting too many Abuse Complains, but at this point it only 
had 3 or so, so that was bullshit. Furthermore i would say that they 
just dont want to work with this legal stuff, so they just try to scare 
ppl away.

Greetz,

Erwin.
