I did add a disclaimer to the fact that others may have a differing opinion.  
:-)

As far as my answer being related to fear, uncertainty, and doubt... in my 
country (and others) raids have happened to people that have ran exit relays at 
home.  Some of these were done pre-dawn which adds to confusion which could 
lead to physical risk.

Just my two cents.

Is this answer and its FUD pertaining solely to USA?
If so, why not say so as there is actually a world beyond the walled garden and 
some may feel they do not have the same threats where they live.

Subject: Re: [tor-relays] Which would be more helpful, to run a bridge or 
normal relay?

Keifer,

Great question. My advice (which may differ from others) would based on the 
location of your connection. If this is in your home I would become a middle 
relay or perhaps a bridge. Running an exit relay from home will put you in 
legal (and potentially physical) danger.

If this is a connection in a non-residential location and have authorization to 
run an exit relay, I would do that.

Thanks!
