Comment:
Replying to [comment:2 Dbryrtfbcbhgf]:
> It is using the same ip. If a attacker would compromise the relay and
the keys are revoked, would the attacker be able to create a new relay and
get in the same position as the old relay?
The new relay doesn't have the Stable or HSDir flags yet. So it won't be
used much for a week or so.
The bandwidth authorities measure fingerprints, not IP addresses. So they
should reset the usage when the fingerprint changes. (I'm not sure if they
reset it when the IP changes.)
We will test this to make sure.
