Yeah, I was raided by Vice (which is the right translation ;) ) as well. > Can't help but think it has something to do with all the attention Tor > has been getting by the police.

I can't tell you what the reason was offcourse, for me it was because of exiting traffic related to case somewhere else in Europe. > How much time did they take to go through all your stuff?

Preliminary results were in after 3 months, and I had some things returned to me, it took them two years to realise I was indeed running a tor exit node, and my case got dismissed returning all my stuff. The department of digital forensics (who does the analysis of the computers) is immensely backlogged. I chose not to push them other than keeping in touch with the DA (OvJ) and the local police officers. Maybe if you put a lawyer on it, you get speedier results, YMMV. -- Simple guidelines to happiness: Work like you don't need the money, Love like your heart has never been broken and Dance like no one can see you. _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
