In general, it's statements like http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=995381&highlight=OVH&page=2 and stuff in Hetzner forums, as well as personal experience of running a Tor exit in Hetzner space. > my root server there, get abuse complaints (sometimes a couple a day, > sometimes one a week), answer everytime to the complainer and to > hetzner that it's a Tor server and didn't have any problems yet.

Wait until you got hit by DDoS or a couple, and then see whether Hetzner is still cooperative. Another major, personal nuisance is if you're in the wrong Bundesland, or whether the criminal investigator is clueful, or actually Tor-hostile. -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org">leitl</a> http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to [email protected] with unsubscribe or-talk in the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
