Yes, I was configured as an exit node with default outgoing ports. Incoming
ports were 80 and 443.
I'm not really serious about rejecting connections from the United States. I'm
sure that technique wouldn't prevent Comcast from figuring out that I was
running a TOR node. Just might slow them down a little.
It's frustrating when the only ISP that offers broadband service decides that
TOR is against their terms of service. (DSL is too slow to be considered as
'broadband' in our area). In my opinion, it's time to regulate ISPs. Just
provide a connection. Don't interfere with my traffic - and don't monitor it
either. (I know it will never happen)
Even though I agree with the ideals of the TOR project, I'm not going to spend
an extra $12 a month to run a node.

Was this an exit node or not?

We're not going to censor Tor.
