Hi,
I'm sorry to hear your exit node got seized, thanks for sharing that information.
tor-relays@geek1.de:
I've found no information - after short googling - if I should take some action after an exit node got seized. Like marking the fingerprint as compromised or something like that.
you can send an email to bad-relays@lists.torproject.org
ideally from the email address given in your relays ContactInfo

I'd guess it's ok to just set up a new exit node on the same IP and everything should be fine but I'm not quite 100% sure on this.
Node in question: https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/AF8A3EE078EB81338461F178DBE5C...
And another question about this topic: Would it be better to create a new exit from scratch or is it ok to restore the latest backup with all keys, etc. ?
It is better to create new keys and not to restore the old once.
