Yeah, I got authorities knocking on my door actually when I had a exit node at home. They understood it quickly because they know what Tor is.
After that I moved me exit node to blazingfast.io, and set up a relay at home -

Me neither, I have a simple html page on the machine that says "THIS IS A TOR EXIT ROUTER" and with an explanation about what Tor is.
But no,,, -
@Linux thought about setting up a relay at home too.
Do you think there will be much traffic? (because of ISP)
And btw : do you know if blazingfast Vps have TUN enabled? -
Linux434837y@ThoughtfulDev
You can run a relay at home :)
You can limit the bandwith if you want/need
Dont know what TUN is :p -
@Linux thanks :) any tutorial on the bandwidth limiting part? I barely know how to setup the tor relay :D
I mean if I can install a VPN server on them (for which tun needs to be enabled :D) -

If you run a relay at home, be advised that certain websites might block you — even if it's not an exit.
For example, I couldn't edit Wikipedia for about 2 years. -

Yeah I noticed after just a day :) Could not login to League Of Legends
Luckily, my ISP offer two IP's, so my relay runs on one completely isolated from the rest of my network -
github95487yNew to tor.. please correct me if am wrong..
Does having a tor relay at home earns a free t-shirt + stickers from tor?
Note: don't know what "tor relay" even means.. that's what the entire conversations were talking about..
Die hard lover of free tees and stickers... 😜😝 -
Linux434837y@github
You are not wrong :)

You dont have to run it at home either, a VPS will do just fine.
A Tor-relay is a server that shuffles traffic in the "The Onion Router" -
github95487y@Linux I guess I found something new to learn, don't know how interesting it will turn out, but for now keeping the goal as earning a tee and stickers.. 😜
Thanks for sharing the link..
It's an open source platform. Right? -
