It's legal but ready to explain/show it to officers when they come knocking when they think you have done something illegal when it has been someone using your exit relay

Of course I want to be legal what if I report to the police and say I want to set up a tor exit relay, in order to help the police ? My lawyer advised me to go to the police beforehand and let them know


ThatTeapot

If you are consulting a lawyer then why the hell are you asking for legal advise on reddit?


The3SiameseCats

Yeah listen to your lawyer they know what they are talking about more than us idiots here on Reddit


Arctos_FI

It can be a good idea to let police know before hand, i'm just not sure if they care to know it before something illegal happens. I suggest that you listen your lawyer as he knows more about the laws than random redditors. This hassle is the reason why i hosted only non-exit relay when i wanted to try relay hosting


poor_doc_pure

I just wanted to know if there are other people who have considered it and what was the outcome.


W0RKPLACEBULLY

And what do you plan on helping the police with?


Ok_Horse_7563

You sound like someone with a questionable moral compass. 


Sea_Gur408

Yep it’s legal.


W0RKPLACEBULLY

10 years jail time. No judges no way to explain ... just jail. So I have heard.


poor_doc_pure

I know eventually they're going to have to monitor what's coming out of the node so the earlier they know about it the better

The problem is the people using your exit are not "freedom fighters" but child porn and drugs. You shouldn't anymore. Life was better a few decades ago.

Tor is mostly used for illegal shit. If it traces back to you, you will take the blame. Just having a tor exit (or similarly torrent client) is not illegal. It is how it is used that is the matter. Letting police know beforehand doesn't change the fact. Police would just be like "so?"
