Re: [tor-relays] Exit relay funding

I think that the purpose was not being famous or recognized but just having more kindness. The fact is that a lot of Tor users don't even know which relay they are using and how to get the informations of the exit relay they're using, meaning that they will actually never thank anyone of running

If you were running relays just to get recognized, you were probably doing it did the wrong reason. ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

I agree with that. Not everyone has a job that earns them a load of money and they still want to operate a relay. I personally spent almost the same money for servers as I can afford to buy food - Life can be hard ;) Am 2016-03-09 um 14:51 schrieb Elrippo: > Why are you then complaining if you do

Re: [tor-relays] Exit relay funding

Why are you then complaining if you do not accept money for running your relays?! I personally do not have any problems with contributing, you earn my full respect, but I do have problems with relay operators who are complaining about others getting funded. Maybe a change in your strategy

For what it's worth, the primary goal of the Toroken Incentive was to make it possible for relay operators such as Michael to continue operating. If adding a cryptocurrency incentive is now on the table, I am down for resuming work on it. -V On Mon, Mar 7, 2016 at 10:37 AM, Volker Mink
