You don't have to run an exit node to help. Just run a guard / middle node. I have been running nodes at home and in data centers since at least 2014 and the only problems i had was one site that redirected me to their .onion site because it thought i was using Tor and once I couldn't access a website because it was hosted in China which blocks all IPs that host Tor nodes.
For Exit nodes it's more complicated. You should read at least [0][1][2] before thinking about running one.
