My own write-up and explanation (and speculation) is available at
https://delroth.net/posts/spoofed-mass-scan-abuse/ as a reference. I've had
a few people email me saying they had the same scare moment after getting
an abuse report and they ended up finding my article, so I'd like to think
it's already helped a bit!

I also received an email today from Hetzner's legal team saying that they
have read my article (props on them, I didn't send it to them myself!).
They are monitoring the situation on their side and emphasized that they do
not usually take action on this kind of reports they have recently been
forwarding to Tor relay operators. So at least for others hosting relays at
Hetzner I don't think it's worth worrying too much. For other hosting
providers, your mileage may vary.
