At least in the US law enforcement can't charge you with anything. More people need to run exit relays, especially from home, so it becomes an accepted use.

- djrogers 7y ago> At least in the US law enforcement can't charge you with anything Citation please? Last I checked people get charged with things they didn't do, or weren't responsible for, in just about every system of justice - that's why we have courts.

However ISPs threatening to cut off your service for running a Tor relay is a good indication you won't even be charged, as the ISP (and the local authorities) should know you have safe harbor.

- driverdan 7y agoIf you want to run an exit node do it on a hosting service. You can get a VPS for $5/m. Why risk getting arrested by running it at home?
