This.

Also, I'm not sure, why this info would even concern you (especially
since you're from the US, if I remember correctly). It's not like you're
giving away your home adress or something. If you keep your real name
out of the various configuration fields like relay-nickname and
contact-email, nobody will even know it's you, who is running this
relay, except for your internet provider (who will know anyway).


But as John said, nobody will fault you if you don't want to run a
relay! We're all volunteers here, after all.

Daniel,

No.  Part of being a Tor Relay is sticking your neck out a bit for those who 
can't.  No one will fault you if you decide to not run a relay.

Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I want to learn how many bytes exit relays forwarded. I assume that the
write-history that is published in a relay's extra-info document
includes bytes that were relayed as part of the exit's guard and middle
role? If so, is there a way to learn how many bytes were written by the
relay in its exit role only?

I suspect that one could approximate this number by accounting for the
probability of all exits being selected as guard, middle, and exit, but
I would prefer a simpler and more reliable approach.

This doesn’t seem like a bad approximation to me, given that for as long as I 
have been aware, exits have had zero probability of being chosen in any 
position other than the exit position.

The whole idea doesn't sit right with me.

For one, I'm not sure I'd want any more Five Eyes entities running
Exit nodes. Most embassies are already a haven for espionage activity.
You'd pretty much have to assume they'd be sniffing the exit traffic.

Also, with all the other priorities, I kinda doubt most embassies have
any interest in the general work involved, not to mention the
liability, of running an Exit.
