Wow, I was just in the IRC channel and people there are saying they don't want exit nodes because of "liability". Completely ridiculous.

- vidarh 15y agoReally? What is ridiculous about it? In the face of potential laws like SOPA which requires restrictions on routing traffic to certain destinations, it would seem that worrying about the potential liability of a network with exit nodes allowing traffic to the "regular" internet is exactly something one should worry about.
- tehgrunt 15y agoActually, I was the one trying to bring that issue up. One can see the problem with exit nodes if you just look at Tor. Exit nodes on Tor are frequently served with DMCA notices and sometimes equipment seizures (in non-US countries).
