That is not a sound approach:
I think it is.
ii) in some legal systems this may mean you can be held responsible for the traffic that is routed via your node.
Example? In Germany you might (or might not) be responsible for traffic you relay. But not relaying part of the traffic doesn't change a thing, legally.
i remember reading somewhere [1] that if you run a server that carries mail and you don't choose where it goes or who it comes from, the server is protected from some DMCA complaints by the DMCA "safe harbor" terms (us code title 17 Chapter 5 ยง 512).
this might only apply in the US and it may not be entirely correct, but it does lay out that if you censor where the traffic goes to or comes from, you surrender some rights.
